How Communities Create Solutions

Creating viable community solutions requires that community members work together towards acquiring necessary skills and support to tackle the challenging issues that will occur in their effort to ensure that the children and families in their communities are safe and healthy.

The resources in this section are meant to provide community organizations and individual organizers with relevant information about how organizing and advocacy can be a powerful vehicle in creating practical solutions towards rectifying the health detriments and housing injustices that children and families face due to lead poisoning and other hazards as it relates to substandard housing. Please also refer to the Resources and Toolkits for Organizing and Advocacy page for links to more organizing and advocacy guides.
