ASHA is applying for a Silver LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Certified green building designation for the new headquarters. It has features that promote a whole-building approach to sustainability by recognizing performance in five key areas of human and environmental health: sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials selection, and indoor environmental quality.
