When developing healthy housing programs, a municipality must be able to create a clear and concise message to convince stakeholders that focusing on healthy and safe housing is a necessary, smart strategy. Supporting your messages with local facts and stories, understanding your audience, and preparing for potential opposition are great strategies to consider when developing your messaging.

This webinar explored ways to use the toolkit effectively.
