The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is offering the Lead and Healthy Homes Technical Studies (LHHTS) Grant Program. This grant is for funding critical research aimed at enhancing understanding of housing-related health and safety risks. It specifically targets lead and other key residential hazards, seeking to improve or develop new assessment and control methods. The program invites proposals that will significantly advance scientific knowledge by addressing existing gaps in the accurate and efficient identification of hazards, as well as the implementation of cost-effective mitigation strategies. Emphasis is placed on studies utilizing implementation sciences to assess the effectiveness of established residential environmental hazard interventions in diverse housing types and settings, ultimately fostering healthier and safer living environments for communities nationwide.

| Description: | HUD is funding studies to improve 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 of priority healthy homes issues by addressing important gaps in 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 residential environmental hazard interventions, that have been shown to be effective in specific housing types and residential settings, can be assessed in other contexts. |
