        Forever Free: Confronting “Forever Chemicals” on the Suncoast

        Date: Thursday, October 16, 2025

        PFAS — per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, often called “forever chemicals” — are man-made compounds that never fully break down and can accumulate in drinking water. Found in everyday items like cookware, fabrics, and food packaging, PFAS are linked to thyroid disease, immune dysfunction, and cancer.

        This session is designed for home service professionals, plumbers, and contractors who want to stay informed and protect their clients. You’ll learn how PFAS affect homes, how to discuss risks with clients, and practical steps for water filtration solutions.

        What You’ll Learn:

        • What PFAS are and why they matter

        • Results from local water testing in North Port

        • How the Forever Free program provides free testing and education

        • Practical ways home service professionals can help clients reduce exposure

          Why Attend:

          • Gain actionable knowledge for your business and clients

          • Stay ahead of a growing water quality concern in the Suncoast area

          • Learn practical solutions to recommend and implement
