Lead-safety Message: I once read: “We don’t believe in coincidences as much as we believe the erring government officials having the strong motivation and capacity to escape from official accountability by silencing the plaintiffs and witnesses for good.” That resonated with me and mine. Flint happened in the US in 2014, and I was all too aware of the disastrous consequences of plumbism. My family’s case has been going on since 2003 & WE WILL NOT BE SILENT. VAP gives voice to victims of lead poisoning and we are grateful for this opportunity to share awareness.
