Warner Tuesday Lunch Hour
Lead Poisoning In Our Own Backyards


December 8, 2003
6 to 7:30 p.m.
Dewey Hall 2-110 E/F

A panel discussion being held as part of the course: Advocacy, Consulting, and Systems Change.

As educators and counselors, are you aware of the symptoms and effects lead poisoning has on a young child’s ability to learn? Would you like to know more about lead poisoning and what you can do about it?

The Advocacy, Consulting and Systems Change Class from the Warner School will be hosting and videotaping a panel discussion with three dynamic community leaders who are real-life change agents and advocates on lead poisoning awareness. They are:

  • Ralph Spezio - Project Believe and former Principal of School #17
  • Patricia Brantingham - The Coalition to Prevent Lead Poisoning
  • Kathy Lewis - The United Way

Please come for all or just part of this discussion and bring your thoughts and ideas. You will be informed about the latest preventive and proactive steps you can take as educators and counselors for your schools. Refreshments will be provided.
