Get the Lead Out!

Properties built before 1978 often used lead in paint and other building materials. These materials may be hazardous to the health of residents today. The City of Greensboro provides lead paint hazard reduction services at no cost as part of its Lead Safe Housing Program. Lead-Safe Greensboro provides grants to assist owners of single- and multi-family dwellings and rental properties with addressing unsafe lead paint conditions that pose a potential health hazard to young children. If your home meets the criteria, it could qualify for a federal grant funded repair program.
