The American Lung Association of California works for everyone who breathes by advocating for policies that improve lung health and helping people prevent and cope with lung disease. We have been leading efforts to reduce air pollution and tobacco use for many decades and are active in communities throughout California, offering support to people with lung disease and preventing others from ever getting it through advocacy, education and research.
The American Lung Association of California is protecting consumers from the dangers of indoor “air purifiers” that actually generate unhealthy ozone air pollution. These so-called air-cleaning devices can harm your health.
