This $1,998,096 Lead Hazard Reduction Grant, awarded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Office of Healthy Homes and Lead Hazard Control on May 15, 2025, aims to identify and control lead-based paint hazards in privately-owned housing occupied by low-income families with children under six years of age in the Rapid City, SD area. The grant aligns with HUD's Lead Hazard Reduction Grant Program (CFDA 14.900), which targets high-risk housing units, promotes cost-effective hazard control methods, and develops community-based approaches to address housing-related health risks. The funding will enable the awardee, Western South Dakota Community Action, Inc., to conduct lead-based paint inspections, risk assessments, and implement interim controls and abatement measures in over 3,700 low-income homes. The project is expected to be completed by November 15, 2028. The award also includes funding for capacity building, affirmative marketing of lead-safe units, and targeted outreach and education on lead poisoning prevention.
