A new collaborative effort, the Better Health Partnership, has been awarded a $1M grant to enhance lead screening and education in Cleveland. Over the next 17 months, the initiative aims to streamline lead-safe education, coordinate testing, and ensure timely interventions to reduce the risks of lead exposure. By providing accessible and comprehensive lead screening services, the partnership seeks to promote healthier communities and support families in need. With a focus on preventive care and public health, this program is set to make a positive impact on the city's residents, particularly children and vulnerable populations. Key services will include lead testing, education, and outreach.
