The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is offering the Healthy Homes Technical Studies grant to improve the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of methods for evaluating and controlling lead-based paint and other housing-related health and safety hazards. This grant is for the purpose of utilizing housing as a platform to enhance the quality of life and health outcomes for residents in HUD-assisted and regulated properties, fostering inclusive and sustainable communities. It aims to mobilize public and private resources, including government and community organizations, to develop and implement effective hazard control methods. Additionally, the program seeks to build local capacity for sustainable initiatives that prevent and minimize housing hazards in low-income residences, ensuring continued impact beyond initial HUD funding.

| Description: | The overall goal of both the Lead and the Healthy Homes Technical Studies programs is to gain knowledge to improve the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of methods for evaluation and control of lead-based paint and other housing related health and safety hazards. This also supports HUD�s Strategic Goal to utilize housing as a platform for improving the quality of life and health outcomes for those living in HUD-assisted and HUD-regulated housing, and the associated policy priority to build inclusive and sustainable communities by improving the health of community residents while reducing the impact of communities on the environment. The overall goals and objectives of the Healthy Homes (HH) Program is to: (1) Mobilize public and private resources, involving cooperation among all levels of government, the private sector, grassroots community-based organizations, including faith-based organizations, and other non-profit organizations, to develop and implement the most promising, cost-effective methods for identifying and controlling housing-related hazards; and
(2) Build local capacity to operate sustainable programs that will continue to prevent, minimize, and control housing-related hazards in low- and very low-income residences when HUD funding is exhausted. |
