Description: | The overarching purpose of the Lead Hazard Reduction Demonstration Grant Program is to assist states, cities, counties/parishes, Native American Tribes or other units of local government in undertaking comprehensive programs to identify and control lead-based paint hazards in eligible privately owned rental or owner-occupied housing. This program is administered under HUD’s Office of Lead Hazard Control and Healthy Homes (OLHCHH) which is aligned with HUD’s 2012-2015 Environmental Justice Strategy. The Environmental Justice Strategy addresses environmental and human health issues that disproportionately affect high-risk communities, such as minorities, low-income populations, children, and persons with disabilities. For more information about HUD’s Environmental Justice Strategy, refer to the website at: http://portal.hud.gov/hudportal/documents/huddoc?id=envjustice.pdf. The Healthy Homes Supplemental funding is being offered to assist those units eligible for use of lead funds to utilize the Healthy Homes Rating System for assessing, prioritizing and remediating other health and safety issues within those eligible units. Applicants receiving an award will accomplish the following objectives: Maximize both the number of children less than six years of age protected from lead poisoning and the number of housing units where lead hazards are controlled; |
