Review for Lead Safe America Foundation, Portland, OR, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I started teaching young children with special needs in 1977 just before the law banned lead in 1978. I took it for granted since so many of my students in Milwaukee were lead poisoned. Giving out pamphlets wasn't enough and over the years I increased my advocacy against lead but always felt there needs to be more. When I met Tamara Rubin and Lead Safe America a few years ago I was thrilled that there finally was someone who was doing more! Her documentary sums it up so well and her website and organization is an excellent reference when I try to tell others about the dangers of lead. Three years retired I am still a vocal advocate and I am so lucky to have Tamara to go the extra mile with added information! I hope her documentary is finished and released soon for all to see. Her stories and pictures make it so easy to warn others about this danger that needs to end. Knowledge is power. Thank you Tamara for sharing this powerful message!
