National Healthy Homes Month 2025
Note: National Healthy Homes Month moved from June to April in 2024.
April is National Healthy Homes Month (NHHM). NCHH is choosing to celebrate this year with the theme of Better Housing, Stronger America.1 This theme emphasizes the many benefits of creating and providing safe, healthy, affordable, and resilient housing for everyday Americans, including but not limited to improvements in individual health, cost savings, job creation, increases in home value, better educational outcomes, reduced spending, reduction in energy use, and, ultimately, stronger communities.
National Healthy Homes Month is an opportunity to educate, raise awareness, motivate action, and build networks and partnerships. In the past, U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and other federal partners have emphasized the importance of testing homes and people, connected people and communities to resources to find and fix residential hazards, encouraged and strengthened partnerships, and motivated action and investment in improved housing quality.
We encourage everyone to share information on some or all of these themes but, most importantly, to get the word out about why safe and healthy housing matters to you and your community.
