Lead has been used for a long time in a wide variety of products found in and around our homes, including painted toys, furniture and toy jewelry, cosmetics, food or liquid containers and plumbing materials. Lead exposure can have serious health consequences for children.

As we observe National Lead Poisoning Prevention Week (October 29-25), take some time to inspect and identify spots in your home (and your child's environment) where lead may be present.
