What is Elder Home Repair?
Elder Home Repair is a unique program targeting the special needs of fixed and often low-income elder homeowners. We support the age network concept of AGING IN PLACE by helping assure a physically safe and healthful home. Specifically, the program corrects unsafe housing conditions (while contained at a manageable scale), which if left unattended, threaten the immediate health and safety of elders at home as well as the structural integrity of their homes. Charges are for materials only; there is no fee for labor. Our staff includes a CERTIFIED AGING IN PLACE SPECIALIST and CERTIFIED GRADUATE BUILDER, designations awarded by the National Association of Home Builders. All staff are agency insured. Primary funding for Elder Home Repair is provided by the Central Massachusetts Agency on Aging, with support from the Worcester City Manager’s Executive Office of Neighborhood Services.
