Overwhelmed with home repairs? You've come to the right place.
We are focused on helping low-income senior homeowners.
No homeowner likes to forgo basic home maintenance, but illness, aging, rising costs or job loss can force them to make difficult choices. We are here to make sure that low-income Montgomery County senior homeowners are able to live in a safe and healthy home. We are making homes safer and healthier by providing critical repairs and accessibility modifications, such as: repairing an unsafe furnace, remediating electrical hazards, correcting dangerous plumbing problems, installing handrails, grab bars, and tall toilets. We are not able to address mold or lead abatement, electrical rewiring of a home, roof replacement, or whole home rehab.

Due to funding requirements, to be considered for assistance, a new application must be submitted each calendar year. Any assistance with repairs and modifications is dependent upon the funding available.
