The University of North Dakota, Division of Research & Economic Development (UND), received a $486,377 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Office of Healthy Homes and Lead Hazard Control under the Lead Hazard Reduction Grant Program (CFDA 14.900). The purpose of the grant is to identify and control lead-based paint hazards in privately-owned rental and owner-occupied housing in low-income and minority communities where children under age 6 are at greatest risk of lead poisoning. Key activities to be performed include targeted lead hazard control work, implementation of cost-effective remediation methods, capacity building for lead-safe work practices, affirmative marketing of lead-safe units, and data collection to evaluate program outcomes. The grant period runs from September 1, 2024 to September 1, 2027. The North Dakota University System serves as the parent organization for UND.
