Question: 1 / 400

What significant change in 2008 improved the ability of state and local Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Programs to serve their communities?

Increased federal funding

The launch of Healthy Housing and Lead Poisoning Surveillance System (HHLPSS)

In 2008, the launch of the Healthy Housing and Lead Poisoning Surveillance System significantly improved the ability of state and local Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Programs to serve their communities. This is because HHLPSS provided a centralized database for tracking and monitoring lead poisoning cases, which allowed for more efficient and effective response and prevention efforts. Option A is incorrect because there is no mention of increased federal funding specifically for lead poisoning prevention programs in the question. Option C is incorrect because a new vaccine does not necessarily have a direct impact on the ability of such programs to serve their communities. Option D is incorrect because the question specifically asks about a change in 2008, and the opening of new community health centers may have occurred at a different time.
