Lease Issue — mold in apartment making family sick

I'm in a difficult situation and trying to figure out my next steps.

mold in apartment making family sick. I've been dealing with this for about 4 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

I have been in this property for 4 years. My monthly rent is $1,800. I have a written lease.
