AASA recognizes that indoor air quality (JAQ) may not make your short list of pressing budget priorities, but through creative funding mechanisms, you can better manage your facility. That is why we are happy to provide our members with a FREE Internet presentation about successful JAQ program implementation strategies. The presentation will cover information vital to implementing cost-effective, successful JAQ programs in your schools, including supplemental funding for school facility improvements, enabling internal staff to contribute to JAQ efforts and specific grant and funding opportunities.

The presentation will be led by Julio Roy, who provides technical support to several U.S. Environmental Protection Agency voluntary pollution prevention programs, including the Indoor Air Quality Tools for Schools (IAQ TIS). Rovi has extensive experience assisting schools working to achieve good IAQ practices in their facilities, and heads a taskforce focused on identifying and mitigating financing barriers faced by public sector entities.
