Summary

From a previous community needs survey, we determined that asthma was a particular problem in our community-based research network of child care centers. This study will examine whether a moderate intervention can help these centers improve their "asthma-friendly" rating as per NHLBI guidelines. We will both center directors and parents to establish baseline data on child health and the "asthma-friendliness" of each center. We will use a wait-list control, with all centers eventually receiving the intervention.
