In partnership with the Office of Los Angeles County Supervisor Kathryn Barger and the Los Angeles County Development Authority (LACDA), the New Roots Eaton Canyon Pilot Program will launch on October 21, 2026—marking a hopeful new chapter for communities affected by wildfire‑related lead soil contamination. With a dedicated investment of $1,000,000 from the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors Climate Equity Account, this initiative will fuel essential soil testing, remediation work, and program administration.
This pilot program stands as a commitment to the residents of unincorporated Pasadena and Altadena offering eligible homeowners access to critical soil‑testing and lead‑remediation services. Rooted in community well‑being, the program strives to protect public health, restore safe living environments, and build stronger, more resilient neighborhoods for years to come.
Each home may receive up to $60,000 for testing and bare‑soil remediation, with a vision of completing approximately 20 properties—turning recovery into renewal, and challenges into opportunities for growth.
