Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
* Does adding either information about the EPA-AQI or commercial AQI improve asthma outcomes over time?
* Are there changes in nasal gene expression in children with asthma who report they are more sensitive to outdoor air pollution?
Researchers will compare EPA-AQI and the commercial-AQI groups to a control group to either AQI works to improve asthma.
Participants will:
* Receive standardized outdoor air pollution education and an asthma action plan
* Provide nose and blood specimens
* Have visits every 4 weeks for 48 weeks, 10 will be conducted by telephone calls and 3 visits will be in person.
