The Catholic community in Michigan is ramping up its efforts to support Flint residents affected by the recent crisis that left thousands of households with lead-contaminated tap water.
Health authorities in Genesee County have advised residents to not consume water without using a water filter, according to the City of Flint’s website.
Flint has a population of just under 100,000 residents.
