Join us for this two-session mini-series. Wisconsin Department of Health Services has heard from new environmental health staff that it would be helpful to provide opportunities to connect and share case studies, lessons learned, or provide opportunities for feedback on complex issues that you may be working through right now. The Wisconsin DHS Bureau of Environmental and Occupational Health mold call response team plan to have an open discussion about DHS' mold response and existing resources. This will be an interactive session, with presenters posing questions to attendees about resources in their jurisdiction as well as time for attendees to share out on success stories, recent challenges, or questions regarding specific cases. We want to hear from you about your mold concerns!
