About this program

The Department of Housing and Urban Development Office of Healthy Homes and Lead Hazard Control administered this Recovery Act-funded program (CFDA 14.907) to identify and control lead-based paint hazards in privately-owned housing occupied by low- or very-low income families, with the most recent grant awards made on October 1, 2008.

This program is not currently active. All 30 recorded grant awards were obligated on a single date—October 1, 2008—as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act stimulus funding. No awards have been made in the 18 years since, and the source contains no indication of open or recently posted grant opportunities. The program existed specifically to drive job creation and economic opportunity during the 2008–2009 recovery period, making it a time-limited Recovery Act initiative rather than a standing federal grant program.

The program funded lead hazard control work across multiple states, including identification of lead-based paint hazards, hazard remediation in privately-owned housing, lead-safe work practice training, capacity building in local housing agencies, and job training and employment for low-income and minority workers and businesses. Funding was also directed toward establishing public registries of lead-safe housing and developing comprehensive community-wide approaches to lead hazard mitigation.

The program was entirely funded by HUD's Office of Healthy Homes and Lead Hazard Control, which obligated $72.2 million across all 30 Project Grants. Individual awards ranged from $257,563 to $3.44 million, with typical awards in the $2.5–$3 million range. Representative recipients include Illinois (Iowa) at $2.97 million and $2.59 million for separate projects, California at three separate awards ranging from $266,208 to $2.78 million, Massachusetts at $3.44 million, and multiple other states including Connecticut, Indiana, North Carolina, and Washington, each receiving awards on the same October 2008 date.

No current funding opportunities are available under this Assistance Listing.
