OHHLHC Grant Start-up Guidance
The Office of Healthy Homes and Lead Hazard Control believes very strongly that the success of our mission to eliminate childhood lead poisoning is directly linked to the success of our partners. To assist you, we are providing guidance and resources to get your grant up and running during the crucial first six-months (start-up phase) of the grant. Please contact your OHHLHC representative if you need any assistance or have questions.
You should always consult with your legal counsel before using sample documents in your own grant programs. Most documents are in MS Word to allow you to edit them for your own program use.

Within 60 Days of Grant Award
- Work Plan sent to GTR
The Work Plan is the HOW of your work plan. It describes how the project will be managed and includes timelines for completing program objectives. Rating Factor 3 of the NOFA application often serves as the initial starting point for the Work Plan, but be sure to communicate directly with your OHHLHC rep when developing your plan.
- Written Policies and Procedures
The Program's written policies and procedures detail the WHAT of your grant program. They are often incorporated within your Work Plan, and sometimes merely referenced, but are an important component that should not be excluded.
- Establish Line of Credit Control System Access (LOCCS)
Your GTR can assist you with any questions. Don't delay in getting your LOCCS access set up. |
