Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Advisory Committee

The Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Advisory Committee is a group of experts who provide advice to the government on how to reduce and prevent lead poisoning in children. Lead poisoning can harm a child’s brain and development, especially from old paint, contaminated soil, or water. This committee reviews research, shares best practices, and recommends actions to protect children’s health. Their goal is to eliminate exposure to lead and ensure children grow up in safe environments, promoting healthier communities and future generations.
