Lead Paint Hazard Reduction Program

The Lead Paint Hazard Reduction Program is a government initiative aimed at eliminating lead-based paint hazards in older homes and buildings. Since lead paint can cause serious health issues, especially in children, the program focuses on identifying, removing, or covering lead paint to prevent exposure. It involves inspections, safe removal methods, and funding assistance for property owners to ensure living environments are safe. Overall, the program helps reduce health risks associated with lead exposure and improve housing safety for communities.
