Lead is a metal that causes major health problems mostly in young children. Lead can be found in many places, including in and around older homes, areas where children play and learn, or in products such as toys, foods or traditional remedies. Children are exposed to lead by touching, swallowing or breathing in lead or lead dust. A blood test is the only way to find out if your child has been exposed to lead. Call your child’s doctor today to get a blood lead test. #OrangeCounty #OrangeCountyCA #OrangeCountyCalifornia #LeadPrevention #LeadExposure

The 2018 Federal Lead Action Plan was released with the goal to reduce childhood exposure to lead and its harmful effects. The government has been implementing strategies in the plan and leveraging partnerships to achieve these goals. The Biden-Harris Administration’s Progress Report shares progress on the government’s efforts to reduce childhood exposure to lead made between December 2018 and April 2024. A summary of significant strides made: • Reducing lead in drinking water, land, air, food, housing, and consumer products, • Improving childhood lead poisoning testing to improve children’s health outcomes, • Enhancing lead hazard communication with partners and the public with streamlined messaging, • Supporting critical research that informs efforts to reduce lead exposures and health risks, and much more. Although childhood exposure to lead has dropped significantly in the past 10 years, thousands of children are still exposed to lead. Those most exposed continues to be children of minority that are living in poverty and older homes.

In our Clay Cookware Replacement Program, our Community Champions are visiting families' homes to help families test their clay cookware for lead contamination. During the home visit, we swab the lead test on the clay cookware’s surface. If the swab turns red, violet or pink, we know there is lead present. After testing, we help the families replace lead-containing clay cookware with lead-free options. En nuestro programa de reemplazo de ollas de barro, los Líderes Comunitarios están visitando familias para probar sus ollas de barro para detectar la contaminación por plomo. Durante la visita, frotamos la prueba de plomo en la superficie de las ollas. Si el hisopo se vuelve rojo, violeta o rosa, sabemos que es positiva a plomo. Después de las pruebas reemplazamos las ollas de barro que contienen plomo con opciones sin plomo. #seriaz #leadtesting #leadpoisoning #NCEH #healthyhomes #leadprevention #cookware #health #lead #leadfreekids #leadsafe #leadpoisoningprevention #nontoxicliving #nosafelevel #childhood #earlylearning #environmentalhealth #healthykids #housing #tucson #tucsonarizona #arizona

Meet Ayden. He’s 8 and no longer speaks. He has tantrums when frustrated and does not play with other children at school. In 2019, parents Dre and Bianca Jones learned that their son’s lead levels were 20 times the current federal level of concern. How did this happen? When Ayden was 2, his parents moved into a rental home that was built before 1978, at a time when lead paint was widely used and less regulated. They watched their child regress into a nonverbal state which replaced his once bubbly personality with reduced impulse control, academic impairment and emotional and physical outbursts. “It’s almost like turning off a light switch,” Dre Jones said. “That’s kind of what happened with him.” According to Jacob Steimer’s latest installment in MLK50’s lead crisis investigation, experts say pediatricians have become less vigilant to lead’s impact and detection, meaning they test far fewer children than they should. Hundreds of Memphis-area kids are diagnosed with lead poisoning each year. Why aren’t more pediatricians testing for it? Click the link in our bio to read Ayden’s story and learn what parents need to know about the warning signs and symptoms. #leadprevention #leadpoison 📸Dre Jones stands on the front porch with his son, Ayden (left), at their home near Dyersburg.

A child’s brain grows rapidly during the first five years of life. Research shows lead exposure can harm a child’s health and brain development. Children can be directly exposed to this hazard if they live in an older home that contains old lead-based paint, typically built before 1978. Lead-based paint can peel and crack into tiny pieces creating dust that children breath in or swallow. Fortunately, lead exposure is preventable. Chesterfield County’s Lead-Based Paint Hazard Control Program was created to protect children five years and younger and expectant mothers from lead exposure. Families may qualify for a free lead hazard assessment and household repairs to remove lead exposure from their homes. No county staff will enter your home. This program has serviced several homes and is currently repairing others in Chesterfield County (or county-wide) that have lead-based paint. If you’re a caregiver of younger children in an older home, you may also qualify for this program. For more information, please contact project:HOMES coordinator, Emily Hurley at [email protected] or 804-718-0517. #leadprevention #leadawareness #chesterfieldva #virginiahousing #vanonprofit #housingnonprofit #affordablehousing #projecthomes #rva

🚸✨ It's National Lead Poisoning Prevention Week, October 22-28! Let's shine a light on the critical issue of lead poisoning, especially its impact on our little ones. 🧒💔 Lead poisoning is a silent threat, but it's most dangerous for children under six years old. Excess lead in their bodies can lead to irreversible damage to the brain, kidneys, and nervous system, affecting their growth, learning, and behavior. 🖐️ Often, children inadvertently ingest lead from their environment, such as lead paint dust or contaminated soil. Everyday behaviors like touching toys or putting hands in their mouths can have serious consequences if lead is present. It can also enter their systems through contaminated water or food grown in leaded soil. 🌟 We're here to raise awareness and protect our children. Together, we can reduce their exposure to lead and ensure a healthier, safer future. Learn more about our lead inspection and remediation services and remember, get your child tested for their safety and peace of mind. Learn more about our lead inspection and remediation services at eis.tech
Do you live near an airport? Some small aircraft still use leaded gas that create dangerous lead air pollution and can cause health problems, especially for children. Most children with lead poisoning do not seem sick. Ask your doctor about a lead test. cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CCDPHP/DEODC/CLPPB/Pages/AviationGas.aspx For more information, visit: Lead in aviation gas: https://bit.ly/3truZfU Lead air pollution: https://bit.ly/46Pej0f #LeadFreeKids #NLPPW2023 #LeadPrevention #lead #leadpoisoning #leadpoisoningprevention #leadfreeSTAN #StanislausCounty #SCHSA #publichealth #stayinformed #BeWellStan #stanislauscounty #StanCountyHSA #StanislausCountyPublicHealth Algunos aviones pequeños aún usan gasolina con plomo que contamina el aire y puede causar problemas de salud, especialmente en los niños. La mayoría de los niños envenenados con plomo no parecen enfermos.

As we observe National Lead Poisoning Prevention Week, remember this - it is recommended that all children ages one and two get tested for lead. There are often times no symptoms when a child is exposed to lead and the best way to know is through a blood test. So, what's involved in testing blood lead levels? This is when a small amount of blood is taken from the finger, heel or arm and tested for lead. There are two types of lead blood tests: 1️⃣The finger-prick or heel prick test: The prick test can provide fast results and can also capture higher results of lead on the skin. 2️⃣Venous blood draw: This test takes blood from the child’s vein. The test can take a few days to receive results and often confirms blood lead levels seen in the first test. #NationalLeadWeek #LeadPrevention #LeadPoisoningPrevention #October #didyouknow #healthyhomes #ChildhoodLeadPoisoningPrevention #getthefacts #leadfreekids #childsafety #homesafety #leadexposure #leadtesting #leadtestkit
