Our Success
EDUCATION |
Working with the Utah Department of Environmental Quality Radon Program (UDEQ), with our radon awareness seminars and other training programs, we have educated thousands of Utahns, dozens of realtors, home builders and others, along with elected officials at the city, county and state levels about radon. |
ADVOCACY |
Working with the Utah Radon Policy Coalition, we convinced State legislators to pass legislation urging Utahns to test for radon and requiring the state to develop a radon action plan. |
At the state level we have obtained nearly $500,000 in State funding to date for state agencies to implement radon awareness activities and campaigns. |
COMMUNITY SERVICE |
We have provided thousands of free radon tests to the general public and free or low-cost radon mitigation systems to dozens of low-income Utahn families statewide. |
Where We Are Headed
EDUCATION |
Extending our radon awareness seminars to the seven counties in Utah with the highest potential for radon risk. |
Increasing the number of Utahns participating in our Radon Navigator™ radon awareness seminars by 50%. |
ADVOCACY |
Convincing state, county and municipal governments to require facilities with high-capacity populations, such as schools and daycare centers, to test for and remediate high levels of radon. |
Convincing donors to contribute to our goal of developing and broadcasting electronic and social media radon awareness campaigns statewide. |
COMMUNITY SERVICE |
Increasing radon testing for all Utahns by 50%. |
Providing free or reduced cost mitigation systems to a minimum of an additional 300 low-income households. |
What We Need
Help us help Utahns make informed radon decision decisions based on fact-based, not fear based information
