Reason for Recommended Action/Background |
Pursuant to the Health and Safety Code, Section 105290, this agreement will provide funding for direct case management for children, as well as education to the communities, families, and health care providers within Yolo County. The Yolo County Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA) will coordinate lead-related activities of local agencies and organizations; alert the Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Branch to new sources of lead exposure and to barriers in the continuum of care and prevention; and help develop creative new strategies towards realizing a healthy, lead-safe environment.
The Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program (CLPPP) provides services to the community for the purpose of increasing awareness regarding the hazards of lead exposure, reducing lead exposure, and increasing the number of children assessed and appropriately blood tested for lead poisoning. The CLPPP program offers home visitation, environmental home inspections, and nutritional assessments to families of children found to be severely lead poisoned. The CLPPP provides telephone contacts and educational materials to families of lead-poisoned and lead-exposed children. The CLPPP provides information and education to the general public, medical providers, and community-based organizations. |
