SmokeReadyUtah: Building smoke-ready communities through air quality monitoring, health messaging and targeted interventions

SmokeReadyUtah provides support for underserved urban and rural communities to handle wildfire smoke. This program provides indoor and outdoor air quality monitoring along with enhanced health messaging and targeted interventions, providing communities and schools with the information they need to minimize their exposure to wildfire smoke.

The project will be completed in March 2027 and updates will be shared here and in our SmokeReadyUtah newsletter as they become available.
