The "STOP Health Threats Act" directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services to award grants to local governments, in consultation with the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development and other relevant agencies. The primary purpose of these grants is to fund the training of local enforcement officers to recognize and respond to public health threats arising from violations of building codes . Local governments receiving these grants must use the funds to develop and implement training programs, which can include partnering with other local governments for collaborative training initiatives. They are also required to coordinate with federal, state, and local agencies, such as public health departments, or non-governmental organizations with relevant expertise. Priority for grant awards will be given to applicants demonstrating strong capacity to provide the training and to areas where public health threats have already been identified.
