Quantifying the effects of lead exposure on children’s futures

08.23.2023

At the August 24 Data & Drafts event, cosponsored by IndyPL, WFYI Public Media, and Bier Brewery, we presented findings from our analysis of the state of childhood blood levels in Marion County. We looked at childhood lead exposure in Marion County, its impacts, and what can be done, with a particular focus on the neighborhoods of Martindale Brightwood and the Near Eastside. You can check out the presentation slides and read our analysis of lead exposure in the Indy East Promise Neighborhood.
