The $1,250,000 Lead Hazard Reduction Grant, awarded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Office of Healthy Homes and Lead Hazard Control on August 15, 2024, will fund the Municipio De Bayamon's comprehensive program to identify and control lead-based paint hazards in privately-owned rental and owner-occupied housing in Bayamon, Puerto Rico. The grant, made under the CFDA 14.900 Lead Hazard Reduction Grant Program, aims to protect children under 6 years old from lead poisoning by targeting high-risk housing units, utilizing cost-effective hazard control methods, and building local capacity for lead-safe work practices. The program will identify and clean up dangerous lead in over 3,700 low-income homes where children 6 and under reside, integrating this effort within broader community-based initiatives to address housing-related health and safety hazards.
