The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is offering the Lead Hazard Reduction Capacity Building Grant Program to assist states, federally recognized Native American Tribes, and local governments in rebuilding their capacity to manage lead hazard control programs. The program aims to develop and expand the necessary infrastructure to identify and mitigate lead-based paint hazards in eligible housing, particularly in jurisdictions that have experienced diminished capacity due to factors such as COVID-19 or loss of experienced staff. With an estimated total funding of $50 million, the program anticipates awarding 22 grants, with individual awards ranging from $500,000 to $2.5 million. Interested applicants must submit their proposals by September 4, 2024, and can direct inquiries to Victoria L. Jackson at olhchh.nofa@hud.gov.
