EBLL LSHR Amendment Trainings
HUD sponsored two different trainings in November and December 2022 that provide an explanation of how Public Housing Agencies (PHAs), grantees, and owners respond to cases of elevated blood lead levels (EBLLs) in children less than six years old living in a federally assisted housing unit. This training provides:
