NOT ALL HEROES WEAR CAPES

But all of us can be heroes by educating both ourselves and those around us of the dangers of lead poisoning as well as the grants that are available to address these dangers. Join us by being a hero for the children in your life who want to grow up to be healthy and happy. When we take action, we impact lives. Click here to learn more about how to take action during Lead Week 2021.
