Senior Minor Home Repair Grant Program

Increase the safety of your home in your sunset years

Adults age 62 and older may be eligible for a grant of up to $5,600 for fall prevention and minor home repairs. Our certified construction project specialists will manage your rehabilitation work efficiently and with high quality materials.

I’ve actually worked with them. I got the senior grant because I’m 77. And they did a wonderful job with my place. Don’t Move, Improve! Because to date, I am very satisfied with the work they did in my home for the senior grant.
