For this kind of thing, the best place to start would be the USGBC
website.  There is a publicly available version of the LEED-H manual
available as a PDF:

If you want just an outline, without all the technical detail, there is
a checklist (which is an XLS spreadsheet document):

The LEED for Homes Rating System Page has more information about
different options (single-family/multi-family) and about the process of
registration and certification:
