Your application paperwork

New Jersey's lead assistance, run by the Department of Community Affairs as the Lead Remediation and Abatement Program (LRAP), helps eligible low-to-moderate income homeowners, landlords, and tenants fix lead-based paint hazards in homes built before 1978 (1 to 10 units). You apply online through the DCAid portal, and a designated local agency or municipality reviews your application and arranges the lead remediation work. There is no cost to qualified applicants.

Steps to apply

Confirm your home was built before 1978 and has 1 to 10 units, and that your household income is at or below 80 percent of your county area median income (the DCA warns at least 20 percent of applications are rejected because the home was not built before 1978).
Go to the DCAid portal at dcaid.dca.nj.gov and click Register Now to create an account.
Start the Lead-Based Paint Hazard (LRAP) application in the portal and enter your property, household member, and income details.
Upload proof of residency (lease, NJ license, or utility bill) and income information, then submit. A designated community based agency or municipality reviews it (typically processed in 30 to 60 days).
If you need help, email LRAP@dca.nj.gov or call DCA at 609-930-1792.
