Opportunity Information: Apply for FR 6100 N 15
The Lead and Healthy Homes Technical Studies Grant Program (Pre and Full Application), funding opportunity number FR 6100 N 15, is a discretionary grant competition run by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). It supports technical research and study projects focused on housing-related health and safety hazards, with a strong emphasis on lead-based paint hazards. The central purpose is practical and method-driven: it funds studies that can improve the tools, techniques, and approaches used to detect hazards in homes, control or remediate those hazards more effectively, and build stronger evidence about how these hazards behave, where they are found, and what interventions work best.
This opportunity is structured as a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant. That generally signals a closer working relationship with HUD during the project, meaning the agency may have more involvement in shaping milestones, providing technical input, or coordinating dissemination of findings than it would under a typical grant. The program sits within the Housing funding activity category and is associated with CFDA numbers 14.902 and 14.906, which correspond to HUD lead hazard control and healthy homes-related assistance.
Eligible applicants are broad and include many types of organizations that might conduct or support applied housing health research. Public-sector applicants include state, county, and city or township governments; special district governments; independent school districts; and public housing authorities or Indian housing authorities. Tribal eligibility is also included, covering federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations. The program is also open to higher education institutions (both public/state-controlled and private), nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status (as long as they are not institutions of higher education), and private-sector entities, including for-profit organizations, small businesses, and other for-profit entities that are not small businesses. This range suggests HUD is looking for the best technical capacity and applied research capability, regardless of whether it sits in government, academia, nonprofit research, or industry.
In terms of funding scale, the maximum award amount (award ceiling) is $700,000, and HUD anticipated making about 7 awards under this competition. That combination implies a relatively selective competition aimed at well-defined, technically rigorous studies with clear deliverables and field relevance. While the details of project length and cost sharing are not provided in the excerpt, the ceiling and expected award count indicate projects are likely intended to be substantive enough to produce actionable methods, validated findings, or improved protocols that can be used by practitioners in the lead and healthy homes space.
Key dates included a creation date of April 12, 2017, and an original application closing date of May 16, 2017. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The title reference to "Pre and Full Application" indicates a two-step application structure, where applicants typically submit an initial, shorter pre-application or concept proposal first, and then selected applicants are invited or allowed to submit full applications. This approach is often used to narrow the pool early and focus full proposal efforts on the most promising technical concepts.
Overall, the program is designed to strengthen the science and practice behind identifying and reducing health and safety hazards in housing, especially hazards related to lead-based paint. The projects HUD seeks to fund are not merely descriptive; they are meant to improve existing hazard detection and control methods, develop new ones where gaps exist, and expand the practical knowledge base that informs healthier, safer housing interventions.Apply for FR 6100 N 15
