 EMPOWER YOURSELF
There’s more to learn about lead. This Lead Poisoning Prevention Week, get knowledge and be empowered to keep both you and your family healthy at home.
 
For this year's national Lead Poisoning Prevention Week, we are working to empower our community members with the knowledge needed to keep them and their families safe from the dangers of lead poisoning - something that harms the health of children in our community here in Alameda County. We recommend community members to learn how they can stay healthy in their homes, learn about the grants available to test & address possible lead hazards, and to attend one of the many events taking place throughout the month. Together, we can end lead poisoning and create a better future for our children.
Click the button below or click here to enter to win a Healthy Homes Starter Kit from Alameda County's Healthy Homes Department valued at $200 - a kit that includes a HEPA-filter vacuum & more for you to keep your family safe!
Take action by attending these events taking place for this year's National Lead Poisoning Prevention Week. Get knowledge and empower yourself.
