Proposed Project Healthy Housing Lead Poisoning Surveillance System (HHLPSS)—New—National Center for Environmental Health (NCEH) and Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR)/Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description The Healthy Housing Lead Poisoning Surveillance System (HHLPSS) builds upon previous efforts by the National Blood Lead Surveillance System (NBLSS) to characterize the home environment in terms of not only lead poisoning risk factors, but also other home-based risk factors. While the earlier NBLSS was focused on homes of children less than 6 years old, the new HHLPSS will enable flexibility to evaluate all homes, regardless of the presence of children < age 6 years. The overarching goal of this system is to establish Healthy Housing Surveillance Systems at the state and national levels. Currently, 40 state and local Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Programs (CLPPP) report information (
                    *e.g.*, presence of lead paint, age of housing, and type of housing) to the NBLSS. The addition of a new panel of housing questions would help to provide a more comprehensive picture of housing stock in the United States and potentially modifiable risk factors. The objectives for developing this system are two-fold. First, the program would like to use surveillance data to estimate the extent of housing-related injuries and asthma. This is important because it will allow the program to systematically track the management and follow-up of those residents with these health outcomes. The next objective for the development of this system is to examine potential housing-related risk factors. Childhood lead poisoning is just one of many adverse health conditions that are related to common housing deficiencies. Multiple hazards in housing, 
                    *e.g.*, mold, vermin, radon and the lack of safety devices, continue to adversely affect the health of residents. It is in the interest of public health to expand from a single focus on lead poisoning prevention to a coordinated, comprehensive, and systematic approach to eliminating multiple housing-related health hazards. The current NBLSS system requires reporting of child blood lead levels and the new HLPSS will continue this effort. There is no cost to respondents other than their time.
