Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if BLL (blood lead level) screening and "healthy home" lead prevention program created in the US is adaptable to a Sub-Saharan African context. It will also work to address child lead exposure in Nairobi, Kenya. The main questions it aims to answer is: * Can materials and protocols developed for a US audience be effective in a Sub-Saharan African one? * Is there a difference in learning and action between groups that receive different degrees of intervention? Researchers will compare the outcomes of a group that received lead risk reduction information only in the clinical setting to a group that also received a home visit and tailored risk reduction messages. Participants will: * Have their child's blood lead levels measured at several timepoints * Take part in a questionnaire about lead risk * Receive lead risk reduction messaging either only in the clinic setting or also in their homes * Have their knowledge and risk reduction behaviors measured
