Description

Join the Legacy Lead Coalition to learn from and honor the work of Dr. Howard Mielke from Tulane University, one of the first researchers to identify lead in soil as a risk to human health.

Come listen to and speak with community members, experts, and stakeholders from:

  • Brooklyn College
  • Columbia University
  • Cornell University

Legacy Lead is a coalition of concerned residents, city employees, scientists, advocates, and greening organizations collaborating to reduce the potential harm we face from lead in soil.
