The home repair program is funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Block Grant (UBDG) and HOME Investments programs. This program assists low to moderate income homeowners to repair and/or rehabilitate their homes to meet the housing codes of the city of New Orleans. The high number of eligible homeowners, many retired, make this a high priority item. Over 25 homes have been repaired under this program and other repairs are in progress.
