City recognizes National Lead Poisoning Prevention Week, Oct. 25-31

Published on October 23, 2026

Oct. 25-31 is National Lead Poisoning Prevention Week, a time to help create awareness about lead exposure.

Is your home safe from lead?

If your home was built before 1978, lead-based paint could pose health risks to your family - especially children.

The City of Fort Worth's Lead-Safe Program offers free lead testing and home repairs to eligible Fort Worth residents to reduce lead hazards.

Protect your family. Create a healthier home. Build a safer Fort Worth!

For more details, visit the City's Lead-Safe Program webpage.
