It's National Lead Poisoning Prevention Week.  Safe Kids Kansas says each year nearly 150 children ages 1 to 6 in Kansas are poisoned by lead. 

The long-term effects of lead poisoning can be physically and financially devastating.  For more information about lead and how to keep your child safe, visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevent website.
