Key Takeaways
- Researchers analyzed 874 U.S. children using linked survey and HUD administrative data.
- Children already receiving housing assistance were less likely to have elevated blood lead levels than those still waiting for assistance.
- The strongest protective association appeared in project-based housing programs such as public housing and income-restricted multifamily housing.
