Lead Poisoning Dangers

13 years ago

IÂm doing some work with the Ad Council, the Coalition to End Childhood Lead Poisoning, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to help raise awareness about the harmful effects of lead poisoning to children living in homes built before 1978. They put together some interesting and informative PSAÂs which you can check out at www.leadfreekids.org. ItÂs definitely an issue to watch out for when renovating your home Â especially when re-painting part of it.
