- 2. Assessment and Intervention Using HUD Community Development Block Grant funds through the City of Omaha, OHKA completed 22 homes in the Prospect Village Neighborhood. We also began receiving referrals from Aetna Better Health of Nebraska and Omaha Children's Hospital for our Project AIR to serve children diagnosed with asthma. This year, OHKA received grant awards from both the Peter Kiewit Foundation and United Way of the Midlands to support our Assessment and Intervention programs. Education and Outreach Through OHKA's EPA grant-funded Grassroots Latino Environmental Education (GLEE) program, we have partnered with 6 organizations to recruit 38 community health workers to train in Healthy Homes. In 2015, OHKA also trained 210 people to become EPA certified. Collective Impact OHKA and the City of Omaha were awarded a HUD grant to make 135 houses lead-safe and healthy over the course of three years. OHKA and Together have also started a project called "From Habitable to Healthy" to ensure that Together's clients have Healthy Homes. Policy Solutions In 2015, OHKA educated the Nebraska State Legislature to help pass Senator Sara Howard's Carbon Monoxide Safety Act which will require CO detectors in all dwellings in the state starting in 2017.
