摘要：
The Flint, Michigan, water crisis began in 2014 when the city's water source was switched from Lake Huron to the Flint River as a cost-cutting measure (Kennedy et al., 2016). The change in water quality eroded pipes throughout the city, releasing lead into the drinking water. As a result, Flint residents were exposed to lead from water in their homes, workplaces, and schools for over 17 months. More than 13,000 children and adolescents lived in homes served by Flint water during this time and were therefore likely exposed to lead (Goodnough, 2016). This, in turn, significantly impacted the local schools and regular and special educators.
