Join us to learn more about La Crosse County Health Department’s (LCHD) new and innovative way to respond to housing complaints. A dual-response between environmental sanitarians and social workers allows a person-centered approach for resolving challenges. The approach blends the housing assessment with immediate linkages to resources, problem-solving, and coordinated follow-up. The LCHD team will talk through the process of creating this model, how Public Health Infrastructure Grant funds have supported the work, and strategies to continue these efforts.
The PHIG Spotlight Series is a platform for Wisconsin public health departments to share their experiences, lessons learned, and barriers encountered while implementing programs or policies. The goal is to foster shared learning, collaboration, and innovation across public health agencies.
