Join HDC for a Learn at Lunch to hear about new tools from the Exemplary Building Program so you can choose healthier building materials that are safer for human health. In collaboration with SKL Architects, Healthy Building Network, and Toxic-Free Future we developed a new tool known as the Healthy Materials Matrix, an easy-to-use guide for switching to safer building materials.

Many building materials can contain chemicals that are harmful to health, and affordable housing residents can be more vulnerable to toxic exposures in their homes. Everyone deserves healthy spaces to live in, and using healthier building materials is essential to protect human health. Join presenters Gladys Ly-Au Young (SKL Architects), Teresa McGrath (HBN), and Erika Schreder (TFF) to hear about how you can use the Healthy Materials Matrix to reduce exposure to harmful chemicals in your buildings.
