Program details

How it works

The Schenectady County Healthy Neighborhoods Program is a free home visiting program. County staff contact participants on a first-come, first-served basis, conduct a brief phone interview, and then schedule a home visit to understand the resident’s concerns and provide education and health/safety supplies.

What the program covers

The county says the program educates residents on:

  • Fire safety
  • Lead poisoning prevention
  • Pests
  • Asthma
  • Tobacco control
  • Falls prevention
  • Child safety
  • Indoor air quality

At the end of the visit, staff provide relevant referrals and resources if needed.

What a homeowner gets

The official page does not list a dollar amount or specific repair scope. It does state that participants receive:

  • Education on how to maintain a safe and healthy home
  • Health/safety supplies during the visit
  • Referrals/resources after the visit, if needed

How to apply

Residents interested in a free home visit are directed to contact the program by phone.

Timing and deadlines

The page does not state an application deadline, funding cap, or end date. It describes the program as an ongoing county service.
