What Are the Barriers to Addressing These Issues?


Addressing toxicological issues in low-income communities is challenging due to several barriers. There is often a lack of regulatory enforcement and monitoring, leading to unchecked pollution and chemical exposures. Additionally, residents may have limited knowledge about toxic risks and fewer opportunities for community engagement in environmental decision-making. Financial constraints also hinder the ability to implement protective measures or relocate from hazardous areas.
