Prevent Lead Poisoning
October 24 through 30 is National Lead Poisoning Prevention Week.
Monitoring lead levels in children is critically important in Lorain County. Many older homes in our communities contain lead paint.
LCCAA Head Start offers lead and hemoglobin screenings as part of the health services we offer our families.
Screenings can be done in our centers with parent permission. Talk to your family service worker for more information.
