This conference presented an important opportunity to talk about the problem of lead poisoning in our shared environment and to identify common strategies to prevent this disease in our children, and workers and their families. The conference was unusual in two aspects: first, its participants represented a broad cross-section of people who have an active interest in lead exposure reduction, and second, its goals were pragmatic and tangible—to identify a set of specific actions that could be implemented immediately to reduce lead exposures in our hemisphere.
