The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is offering the Lead and Healthy Homes Technical Studies Grant Program. This grant is specifically designed to fund studies that enhance knowledge of housing-related health and safety hazards, with a strong focus on lead and other significant residential risks. The primary purpose of this grant is to improve or develop innovative hazard assessment and control methods. HUD encourages proposals that address critical scientific gaps, facilitating accurate and efficient hazard identification and promoting cost-effective mitigation for healthier homes. Furthermore, the program supports research in implementation science to ensure proven environmental interventions are sustained effectively across diverse housing settings, thereby boosting their long-term efficiency and efficacy.

| Description: | HUD is funding studies to improve HUD’s and the public’s knowledge of housing-related health and safety hazards and to improve or develop new hazard assessment and control methods, with a focus on lead and other key residential health and safety hazards. HUD is especially interested in applications that will advance our knowledge on priority healthy homes issues by addressing important gaps in the science related to the accurate and efficient identification of hazards and the implementation of cost-effective hazard mitigation. This includes studies using implementation sciences in identifying specific conditions under which proven residential environmental hazard interventions in targeted housing types and residential settings can be sustained to improve intervention efficiency and efficacy. |
