AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: Academic and non-profit institutions located in the United States, state and units of local government and federally recognized Native American tribes are eligible under all existing authorizations.  For-profit firms also are eligible; however, they are not allowed to earn a profit from the grant.  Applications to supplement existing projects are eligible to compete with applications for new awards.  Neither Federal agencies nor individuals are eligible to submit applications.  The General Section identifies threshold requirements that must be met for an organization to receive an award.
Description: The overall goal of both the Lead and the Healthy Homes Technical Studies programs is to gain knowledge to improve the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of methods for evaluation and control of lead-based paint and other housing related health and safety hazards. This also supports HUD&#146;s Strategic Goal to utilize housing as a platform for improving the quality of life and health outcomes for those living in HUD-assisted and HUD-regulated housing, and the associated policy priority to build inclusive and sustainable communities by improving the health of community residents while reducing the impact of communities on the environment.
