NYC Air Quality Project

Dalton will be participating in a multi-year effort to measure the impact of air quality on educational outcomes (such as attendance and test scores) for students across New York City, and identify the role that building infrastructure can play in protecting students from harmful air quality. This project is an interdisciplinary multi-organization collaboration between Fordham University, Resources for the Future, and three environmental justice/community based organizations: The Point Community Development Center, TREEage and the NY Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU)
