In November, NCHH, in collaboration with NEHA, NACCHO, and ASTHO, will offer a new funding opportunity for local governmental agencies housing their jurisdiction’s childhood lead prevention programs (i.e., local health departments, local environmental health agencies).
The funding will support their agency to implement a Health in All Policies strategy as part of their lead prevention implementation program and activities. Examples of sponsored activities can include building or enhancing a lead coalition and setting up joint meetings with partners to increase screening and case management. Up to three entities will be awarded a max funding amount of $20,000 each, as well as technical assistance from these national partners along the way.
