Description
This grant opportunity funds projects that identify and remediate housing-related environmental health and safety hazards—such as lead, mold, allergens, carbon monoxide, and other risks—in privately owned, low-income rental or owner-occupied housing. The program’s primary aim is to protect vulnerable residents, including children, older adults, and people with disabilities, by supporting interventions that are cost-effective, sustainable, and replicable. Grantees are also expected to provide public education, build local capacity for ongoing healthy homes efforts, and integrate activities with other housing, health, and weatherization initiatives. Collaboration with local partners and data sharing are encouraged, and projects must comply with federal and HUD-specific requirements.
