HUD Announces $143 Million in Grants to Protect Children from Dangerous Lead and Other Home Health and Safety Hazards
HUD grants to support 65 local programs in 23 states across the country
WASHINGTON - The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development today awarded nearly $143 million in grants to dozens of state and local communities, public health organizations and scientific research institutions to help protect children and families from dangerous lead-based paint and other home health and safety hazards. The funding announced today is expected to reduce or eliminate lead exposure in more than 10,500 homes nationally, and reduce levels of allergy-inducing substances in more than 780 homes. Lead is a known toxin that can impair children's development and may even cause death at high levels.
"Today, we are making our homes safer and healthier places in which to raise our children," said HUD Secretary Alphonso Jackson. "In particular, HUD is awarding these grants as part of our commitment to help communities eliminate childhood lead poisoning by 2010."
