HUD is welcoming the new year with funding to make homes safer to protect children and families addressing significant health and safety hazards.
detroitnews.com/story/life/hom… The lead dust issue and even soil contamination is significant because children can ingest the material unwittingly through the air they breathe, chewing on chipped paint in the home and the habit of placing fingers in the mouth and around the eyes.
The City of Detroit is known for its beautiful homes. Lead-based paint can pose a health and safety risk to your family, and if your house was built before 1978, it may contain lead-painted surfaces. Removing it must be done properly. Find a certified lead professional.
There is no way to remove lead from any herb, spice, or food once it's present, -Laura Shumow, of the American Spice Trade Association. Vitamin C and minerals like calcium, iron, selenium, zinc can help reduce overconsumption of lead and other metals. #leadpoisoningprevention

We believe that all children deserve clean air, clean water, safe food and products, and healthy places to live, learn and play. That’s why we work to protect children’s environmental health year-round - especially lead poisoning #CEHday
We were thrilled to work with Wayne County Community College District to develop this workshop. Can we create one for you? #leadpoisoning
Changes are coming to the EPA's Lead and Copper Rule, both now and in 2027. What are the changes, and how will they affect the public health world? bit.ly/Blog_2409A #LCRI #DrinkingWater #LeadInWater #LSLR Sent from my iPhone
So cool to be streaming music and hear a reminder to get home inspected and your blood level too especially if your home is older 1978. Michigan.gov/leadsafe
Back to school or yearly physicals - ask for a lead test #leadfree
Congrats!!! You're expecting !! Routine blood lead testing of all pregnant and breastfeeding persons is not recommended. However, all pregnant or breastfeeding persons should be assessed for risk of lead exposure tinyurl.com/v3k9rdwz
When you are getting your kids' physicals before school starts- ask for a lead test. Reminder: Gov. Gretchen Whitmer signed legislation Tuesday that requires all 1- and 2-year-olds in Michigan to be tested for lead exposure.
Do you know that windows are a common source of lead in the house? Learn more on our site: leadoutdetroit.com/lead-in-your-h…
It's gardening time! But DYK: The soil around your home may be contaminated with lead of the exterior of the house has chipped, or peeling lead-based paint. We have EPS resources about soil contamination and remediation on our site. Under: "Sources of Lead" #soilhealth
