The Department of Housing and Urban Development is offering $10.1 million in grants to help eliminate dangerous lead-based paint from lower-income homes and protect young children from lead poisoning.
HUD will award grants ranging from $50,000 to $875,000 in three programs to approximately 28 to 51 applicants. The applications are due in mid November. They can be downloaded at HUD’s Funds Available Web site. –Jean Dimeo

Eradicating the lead paint in our communities is a very important initiative. Kudos to HUD for contributing to the program. Especially in low income housing where children can be poisoned by lead content. Good program.
