LENEXA, KAN. (SEPT. 7, 2023) – The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency

Exposures Together, on Sept. 12 and 13, 2023, at the Kauffmann Foundation
Conference Center, 4801 Rockhill Rd., Kansas City, Missouri.
The 2023 Region 7 Lead Summit was planned jointly by local, state, and federal

opportunity to:
Discuss effective strategies to address childhood lead poisoning, including

Identify strategies for how organizations can acquire funding to reduce lead
exposures.
Understand the importance of leveraging community engagement and methods to
involve community stakeholders.

blood lead levels, which can have lifelong impacts,” warns EPA Region 7
Administrator Meg McCollister. “Cohosting and participating in the Region 7

in our families, neighborhoods, and communities.”
