CHILDHOOD LEAD POISONING PREVENTION BRANCH

Grants for Reducing Lead Hazards

As of April 2020, the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) is posting information about grants that may be used for lead abatement or reduction of lead hazards in California. Most grants are from entities outside of CDPH. Thus, interested parties should contact those entities with questions about applying for the grants and eligibility. If an entity has a grant to offer that is not listed below, please contact the CDPH Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Branch at (510) 620-5600 to request that it be added. The CDPH Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Branch encourages any who are eligible to apply for grants that reduce exposure to environmental lead hazards in California.
