Lead Safe Ohio Program

How it works

Medina County’s official page explains that Lead Safe Ohio is a state program funded through the Ohio General Assembly and administered by the Ohio Department of Development in coordination with the Ohio Department of Health. The county page says the program invests state money toward lead-safe homes for children and families.

What the money covers

The county says funds can be used for:

• lead-safe building certification
• screening and testing for lead poisoning
• education and outreach
• early intervention for children and families impacted by lead
• workforce development, recruitment, and retention of lead contractors
• lead-safe renovations such as window and door replacement in single-family homes, congregate care shelters, and child care facilities constructed before 1978

How to apply

The county page includes a pre-application and informational flyer link, and directs residents to the statewide Lead Safe Ohio program page for more information.

Timing and deadlines

The county page does not state a current opening date or closing date on the page excerpt. It presents the program as active and available through the county’s planning site.
