The Healthy Homes Program is designed to protect the most vulnerable families in the community from housing-related hazards by preserving affordable housing, improving conditions, and improving neighborhoods in the city. The program will holistically address a variety of high-priority housing-based health and safety hazards, such as mold and moisture, pests, injury and safety hazards, poor indoor air quality, carbon monoxide, and the identification and mitigation of radon. Applicants are eligible to receive a grant of up to $7,500, average per unit, to address housing hazards.
