Key Learning Objective:  Private well water should be tested regularly for contamination from microorganisms and harmful chemicals.

  • Identify health risks and sources of contamination associated well water.
NOTE: Science Take-Out Community Environmental Health (CEH) kits are simplified versions of our “regular” kits (shortened/modified activities and lower literacy).

CEH kits use hands-on activities to engage diverse community audiences in learning about environmental health issues. The kits also encourage discussions about ways to reduce exposures to environmental health hazards. Each CEH kit contains materials to be shared by two participants.
