Low rates of blood lead level screening among young children persist as a public health issue in the United States, including in Texas where levels remain below the national average. This article describes a multiyear, multipartner initiative aimed at increasing screening rates through a creative, community-informed social media campaign. Interviews with parents, providers, and state health department staff revealed a common perception that lead poisoning was a relic of the past. Using these insights, the team developed humorous social media messaging comparing extinct animals to lead poisoning to capture attention and change attitudes about lead's current relevance. The "#GetLeadCheckedTexas" campaign ran on state health department channels during National Lead Poisoning Prevention Week in October 2020. Colorful graphics depicted extinct creatures like dinosaurs along with their babies, playing on childhood enthusiasm for such animals while evoking protective feelings in parents. Messaging highlighted lead's dangers for young children and encouraged viewers to discuss testing with providers. Website analytics showed the campaign drove substantial increases in page views for lead screening resources, particularly among providers. While originally designed with a parent audience in mind, the campaign seemed to resonate more with providers, likely due to timing during an awareness week and use of official health department channels. The initiative demonstrates the value of creative communications approaches employed in traditional advertising to raise awareness and promote public health priorities. Audience research, thoughtful use of humor, and designing human-focused messaging helped cut through information clutter and drive engagement with an important childhood health issue.
