The Healthy Homes Program addresses the potential for childhood diseases and/or possible injuries that could occur within the home. The program takes a comprehensive approach to these activities by focusing on 29 housing-related hazards in a coordinated fashion rather than one hazard at a time.
The Housing Stabilization Initiative takes the opportunity to provide home stabilization for vulnerable adults, elderly adults, adults with disabilities and adults in need at no cost. Examples of work include repairing holes in roofs and floors, adding handicapped bars, and ramps, and making electrical and plumbing repairs to restore service.
The Aging In Place Housing Repair Program is related to mitigating the impact of COVID-19 by enabling lowincome elderly Richland County residents to remain in their homes through low-cost/barrier, high-impact home modifications to reduce adults’ risk of falling, improve general safety, increase accessibility, and improve their functional abilities in their homes.
