Federal Government Changes
The new Administration has undertaken a dramatic restructuring and tremendous downsizing effort of the federal government that is likely to fundamentally alter lead poisoning prevention and healthy homes efforts across the country.
Congress will be weighing in as it considers FY2026 appropriations bills in July.
How This Conference Helps
In light of the federal situation, lead poisoning prevention and healthy housing communities need to be able to evaluate their options, recalibrate their approach, and make decisions on next steps.
The 2026 National Lead and Healthy Housing Conference provides communities with an opportunity to engage and collaborate with peers and other stakeholders, so you have a clear-eyed understanding of what happened and can chart a path forward for your organization.
The Bottom Line
Whatever happens to the federal government, mold, cockroaches, mice, rats, radon, carbon monoxide, lead hazards, VOCs, and asbestos will remain a threat to families' ability to thrive and contribute to society. Families and communities will continue to rely on lead poisoning prevention and healthy housing professionals to help understand, identify and prevent, and remediate these health hazards.
