Addressing Lead Exposure in our Communities

This timed and monitored course provides information about lead exposure, focuses on community solutions to lead exposure, and provides tools for preventing lead exposure in the home. It is based in part on the Flint Water crisis and provides strategies to prevent a similar event from occurring by highlighting strategies such as healthy homes interventions, training, and effective communication.

The drinking water crisis in Flint, Michigan has raised public health concerns about lead exposure, the U.S. water supply infrastructure, and the authority to enforce safe and sanitary conditions. This recorded webinar addresses the impact of lead exposure on health.
