Additional Information
EPA recognizes that childhood lead poisoning is one of the greatest, if not the greatest, environmental threats to the health of our children. Through childhood lead poisoning prevention outreach and education efforts, along with compliance assistance and enforcement of Federal lead laws, EPA seeks to reduce and, ultimately, to prevent lead poisoning among our nation's youth.
