Overcoming Challenges in Housing-Based Research

In 2013, Enterprise Community Partners, The JPB Foundation, the National Center for Healthy Housing, and several university partners embarked on a multiyear, multisite study of green building practices. This longitudinal housing-based research sought to measure the effect of green building practices on the respiratory health of residents living in affordable housing. Building on a 2017 report that explored lessons learned from initial stages of the study, this report further explores key insights gained in different stages of the study, ranging from design to implementation, offering an in-depth look at the complexity of and challengse presented by housing-based research.
