The Healthy Living Working Group is dedicated to fostering a community driven space in which members will deepen their understanding of toxic exposures that disproportionately affect our communities. With a primary focus on addressing lead poisoning, the presence of toxic chemicals in personal care products, and cumulative exposure from our built environment, our mission is to educate, advocate, and take action for healthier living communities.
We strive to raise awareness about the sources and impact of toxins and prepare communities with lived experiences with the resources and tools to build community power to advocate for policy changes that prioritize environmental justice and public health.
