Home repair is critical for building resilient and equitable communities. During the pandemic—and in some cases, much longer before—too many low- and moderate-income owners deferred much-needed maintenance on their homes. A good home repair program is designed to achieve critical goals such as preserving older housing, improving the health and quality of life of occupants, helping lower-income owners achieve code compliance, and improving neighborhoods. This session will go in-depth into the various types of home repair programs in use around the country, and the key decisions regarding eligibility, type of funding, maximum funding, contractors used, and other features that allow for the best use of limited resources in your community.
