Attend
our Lead Poison Prevention Workshop held on the 2nd
Thursday of every month from 6:00pm to 8:00pm. We also hold it on the 4th
Thursday of every month for Spanish speakers from 6:00 to 8:00pm. Learn
how you can get a free lead dust wipe test done in your home
and how to receive free cleaning supplies.
Join us
for an introduction to the hazards associated with lead-based paint and
other lead hazards commonly found in the home and learn how to avoid
them. If you are pregnant, have young children, or have young children
who visit you regularly, we urge you to attend and learn how to protect
them from a preventable health hazard that could effect their early
development. Lead poisoning has been linked to many health problems
including reduced birth weight in babies, ADHD, hearing loss and learning
difficulties in young children, high blood pressure, reduced concentration
and fertility problems in adults.
