Hypothetical question

I've been trying to resolve this on my own but I'm stuck.

mold in apartment making family sick. I've been dealing with this for about 14 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have been renting for 8 years. My monthly rent is $1,473. I have a written lease.

What's the typical outcome in situations like this?
