Princeton Regional Health Department Participates in the

Wipe Out Lead New Jersey (WOLNJ) Program

 

Wipe Out Lead New Jersey is a statewide initiative to distribute free at home lead dust test kits to pregnant women and families with small children.  The simple to use kit contains everything needed to collect dust wipe samples from the window sill and floor, including a pre-addressed, postage-paid envelope to send samples to a professional lab to determine whether harmful lead dust from lead based paint is present.  Along with the results, families receive information on cleaning and nutrition to immediately reduce exposure to harmful lead dust in the home, testing children for lead poisoning, and pursuing further inspection and when appropriate, elimination of harmful lead hazards.

 

TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR A FREE LEAD DUST TEST KIT, YOU MUST:
