Register for Ensure PFAS free Drinking Water  on 12/6/22 at 12 pm or 7 pm  (Virtual via Zoom) 

PFAS compounds are pervasive in our society. They are found in our bodies, household dust, clothing, cosmetics, and many other products we use daily and in drinking water. 

Learn about PFAS and how to engage your municipality in testing their drinking water for these toxic bioaccumulating chemicals.

Whether you are a municipal or elected leader, water specialist, environmentalist, or citizen, you will be introduced to the information you need to test your drinking water for PFAS or to request your municipality test the community's drinking water for PFAS. You will be introduced to three toolkits.
