Abstract

"The Radon Project" was a cooperative educational program to increase public knowledge of the radon health threat and to increase testing and mitigation in at-risk homes. An evaluation survey of a sample of participants in the pilot program is reported. Almost half of the respondents did not perceive a radon problem despite objective evidence of risk. Factors affecting the perception of radon risk, and thus mitigation action, are discussed. Implications for educational programs are presented.
