This Project Grant award, valued at $7,749,999.67, was provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Office of Healthy Homes and Lead Hazard Control under the Lead Hazard Reduction Demonstration Grant Program (CFDA 14.905). The grant aims to identify and control lead-based paint hazards in privately-owned rental or owner-occupied housing where children under 6 years old reside, particularly in low-income and minority neighborhoods. Key activities to be performed include targeted lead hazard control in pre-1960 and pre-1940 housing units, utilizing cost-effective remediation methods, building local capacity for safe lead management, affirmative marketing of lead-safe units, and conducting community outreach and education. The award is expected to address lead hazards in approximately 3,700 low-income homes, protecting families and children from the dangers of lead exposure. The grant will be administered by the City of Houston's Department of Health and Human Services, leveraging partnerships with local organizations to deliver these comprehensive lead hazard control services.
