Lead Rally Planning
I am completely behind this effort, and the city should be as well. I hope the city will consider subsidizing the cost of lead testing of both places and individuals- or better yet, Sherwin Williams could (should!) generate a special fund for these purposes- and institute a concerted public awareness campaign that includes not only billboards but television and radio programming as well. Perhaps that programming could include 'how-to' pieces on testing.
I would like to help cultivate support for this cause, some groups at Case have reacted favorably to working on this issue and I'll start there.
Connecting Case and Lead Rally
Excellent, Sudhir - network at Case. There are many Case connections with GCLAC and the more the better. Also, work on raising awareness among sustainability, education, healthcare and social change leaders in general - this is not about one child but all children, and they effect everyone. There are two planning meetings coming up for the lead rally - I'll post the info later today.
