Lead Abatement/Government Resources
Medicaid Grant (SCHIP)
The Ohio Department of Health (ODH) and the Ohio Department of Medicaid (ODM) have been provided with State Children’s Health Insurance (SCHIP) funding for lead paint hazard testing and removal.
Lead poisoning affects thousands of Ohio children. The goal is to help protect families with Medicaid-eligible children and/or Medicaid-eligible pregnant women against the dangers of lead paint hazards.
Lead Abatement Tax Credit
The Ohio Department of Health (ODH) lead abatement tax credit program provides state tax credit certificates to Ohio property owners who have incurred lead abatement costs in their pre-1978 built dwelling.
The goal is to help promote lead-safe housing in the state, offset the costs associated with the performance of lead abatement, and protect families and children against lead exposure.
