Who We Are

The Emergency Home Repair Program improves housing conditions and opportunities for low and very low-income Virginians. The program provides funds to remove imminent health and safety hazards, and/or barriers to habitability in their homes.



Eligible repairs can include plumbing, structural, electrical, roofing, wheelchair ramps, and handicapped accessible appliances.



The Home Repair Program - In partnership with Rural Development provides one-percent interest loans to low-income individuals and grants to low-income persons aged 62 or older for home repairs.



Indoor Plumbing Rehabilitation - To ensure every resident's home has an indoor bathroom. If the home can be brought up to standards for less than $25,000, the home will be renovated. Call for information if the cost will exceed $25,000.
