The Forever Chemicals - a Great Lakes Now documentary

It’s a curious acronym — PFAS — and it stands for a family of chemicals that’s in most homes and being detected in an increasing number of people’s water systems around the world. Research is only beginning to determine the health effects and what, if any, treatment there might be. In this documentary, produced in partnership with MLive Media Group, the Great Lakes Now team explores what this new water crisis has meant for families and communities in west Michigan.

Support for this documentary was provided by the Ravitch Fiscal Reporting program at the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at the City University of New York.
