Visit the Northeastern IPM Center’s exhibit at the National Healthy Homes conference on June 13 – 16, 2016 in San Antonio, Texas. Staff from the Center will be conducting a one-question survey to assess barriers for understanding and/or implementing IPM. Participation will be easy—no long answers; anyone who participates will be able to select a choice from a list.
Survey instructions
Evaluation staff will use the choices to evaluate the knowledge, awareness, practices used, perceptions and adverse reactions among diverse populations.
