Helpful Tools
Looking for a form? Visit Forms.gov

The Office of Healthy Homes and Lead Hazard Control believes very strongly that the success of our mission to eliminate childhood lead poisoning is directly linked to the success of our partners. To assist you, we are providing guidance and resources to get your grant up and running during the crucial first six-months (start-up phase) of the grant. Please contact your OHHLHC representative if you need any assistance or have questions.

You should always consult with your legal counsel before using sample documents in your own grant programs. Most documents are in MS Word to allow you to edit them for your own program use.

  • Work Plan sent to GTR and HH Field Rep

    The Work Plan is the HOW of your work plan. It describes how the project will be managed and includes timelines for completing program objectives. Rating Factor 3 of the NOFA application often serves as the initial starting point for the Work Plan, but be sure to communicate directly with your OHHLHC rep when developing your plan.
    • Written Policies and Procedures
    The Program's written policies and procedures detail the WHAT of your grant program. They are included within your Work Plan but are an important component that should not be excluded.
  • Establish Line of Credit Control System Access (LOCCS)

    Your GTR and/or Healthy Homes Field Representative can assist you with any questions. Don't delay in getting your LOCCS access set up.
