Each year, National Lead Poisoning Prevention Week (NLPPW) is a call to increase lead poisoning prevention awareness in an effort to reduce childhood exposure to lead. National Lead Poisoning Prevention Week highlights the many ways parents can reduce children's exposure to lead in their environment and prevent its serious health effects. Public Health Nurses for the Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program, Linda Overton and Noella Tattaw, discuss lead poisoning prevention.
