Free Home Repair Services!
Is your home in need of rehabilitation or repair? If the answer is yes and you find it difficult to pay for these services, RPJ Housing maybe able to help you. For over 20 years, RPJ Housing has been providing free home repair services to limited income homeowners through its Rebuilding Together and Hearts and Hammers programs. Since 1988 over 61,000 community members have repaired 2,200 homes and non-profit facilities.
All the work is done for free by teams of volunteers with skills ranging from novice to professional. These dedicated community members repair floors, ceilings, walls and doors; install grab bars, railings and smoke detectors; address minor plumbing and electrical repairs; build ramps, paint, clean out gutters and attend to yard work.
To qualify for these programs, residents must own and live in the home to be repaired. The income level for an individual cannot exceed $43,050. For each additional person in the home the income level increases by increments of $4,800-$6,000. Priority is given to seniors and persons living with disabilities. Read more!

Corporation (RPJ Housing), an area that the police identified as crime

has been transformed into a desirable, affordable community. A complete facelift
transformed the buildings

finishing system, pitched roofs, new porches with fiberglass columns,
and
concrete sidewalks for easy access.

provide affordable
housing to 59 families needing two bedroom units. Read More About It!
