The primary goal of this program is Lead Hazard Reduction-- wherever lead is present, we will work to eliminate those hazards. This often looks like replacing and installing new:

• windows

• doors

• wood surfaces

​

The second goal of our program is Healthy Homes-- as long as we have the additional funding, we will provide health and safety improvements to your home that are not related to lead. This might look like:

• replacing your roof

• installing an HVAC

• or upgrading your electrical system

Timelines vary based on different factors. After being assigned to a Residential Rehabilitation Specialist takes about seven months to complete a project.
