End Childhood Lead Poisoning


End Childhood Lead Poisoning
The Issue
Regardless that lead was banned for residential use in 1978, our children were poisoned in their own homes.
They now face a life of
- Damage to the brain and nervous system.
- Slowed growth and development.
- Learning and behavior problems.
- Hearing and speech problems.
It has been 45 years since the ban, yet people are still unaware of this silent epidemic.
