To insure the quality of air and the safety of residents in its housing programs, Albany Housing Authority has decided that all residential properties will be smoke-free as of January 1, 2016. Smoking will not be permitted indoors, including in the apartments. Smoking will be permitted outside in designated areas, or more than twenty-five (25) feet away from buildings if there are no designated areas.
A smoke-FREE policy in all Albany Housing Authority buildings means that everyone who visits, lives or works in Albany Housing Authority buildings is FREE to breath cleaner, safer, healthier air.
A healthy living partnership of
Albany County Dept. of Health
Albany Housing Authority
American Heart Association
Asthma Coalition of the Capital Region
Capital District Tobacco Free Coalition
Center for Health Programs & Promotion
Healthy Capital District Initiative
Why is Albany Housing Authority going smoke-free?
It’s Cleaner! Smoking in units leaves a residue that is both highly toxic and difficult to clean. This residue contains chemicals that can produce similar effects to lead poisoning.
It’s Safer! Smoking is the leading cause of residential fire deaths and injuries. Almost 1,000 people die every year in smoking-related fires, half are residents in multiunit housing.
It’s Healthier! Secondhand smoke travels between units and poses a serious health threat to children and adults. Exposure to secondhand smoke can: Harm lung development in children and cause Sudden Infant Death Syndrome Cause heart disease and lung cancer in nonsmokers Lead to more coughs, wheezing, ear infections, bronchitis or pneumonia Trigger more frequent and severe asthma attacks
What about smokers?
Smokers are free to enjoy their home but must smoke outside and away from buildings. If anyone wants to quit, we can help through:
The Butt Stops Here cessation classes call 459-2550 or visit www.healthprograms.org/quit-now for more information
The New York State Smokers’ Quitline 1-866-NY-QUITS or www.nysmokefree.com
Thank You!

On behalf of the Albany Housing Authority and Robert Whalen Homes, I am proud and excited to announce the opening of the laundry room at the Robert Whalen Homes. There was an operating laundry room in this development previously and we are happy to have it open again. After several requests from our residents, the process of reopening the laundry room began. The residents voiced that there was a need for a laundry area in this development because there was a lack of laundry facilities in the community. We hope that this laundry space will improve the quality of life for you, our residents.
