Key activities include conducting lead inspections and risk assessments, implementing interim controls, and performing abatement to protect children from lead poisoning. The grant also includes funding for targeted outreach, education, and capacity building to promote long-term safety and sustainability. The project period runs from September 2024 through September 2027.
