Dear Property Owners, Managers and Rehab Contractors:



If you rent a home built prior to 1978, your tenants may be at risk of lead
poisoning. Young children are especially susceptible to lead poisoning,
which can cause brain damage resulting in a learning disability and/or
mental retardation. In addition, anyone renovating and/or maintaining an
older home may also be at risk of lead poisoning.



To help address this problem, the Durham Affordable Housing Coalition is
coordinating a training next month. Here are the particulars on the
training:



Event:               LEAD-SAFE MAINTENANCE TRAINING

Date:                Friday September 17, 2004

Location:            Hayti Heritage Center

                        804 Old Fayetteville St.  In The Community Room

Time:                9:00 AM – 5:00 PM

Cost:                FREE

Cosponsors:            City of Durham Lead Program

                        N.C. Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program



The training is designed to teach homeowners, property managers, maintenance
staff, and renovators about lead-safe maintenance practices. Other benefits
of attending include:



·        Training satisfies HUD requirement for anyone renovating/remodeling
a residential property with federal funds as well as any Section 8 property
owner renovating/remodeling his or her unit(s).

·        Learn about City and County programs to help assess and address
lead hazards.

·        Find out about limited liability relief from potential lead
poisoning litigation through the State Preventive Maintenance Program.



If you are interested in participating in this training, please complete the
enclosed registration form and fax it to 688-0082 by Wednesday, September
