The Senior Grant Program assists with mobility and habitability repairs to help low-income seniors (62 years or older) remain in their homes and age in place. Seniors must reside within the unincorporated areas (UA) of Los Angeles County Supervisorial Districts 1, 2, 4, and 5, and must own the home, which is in need of home modifications and repairs.
Additionally, the Program will finance deferred maintenance repairs such as roofing, plumbing, electrical, or heating that are necessary to improve the structural integrity of the home and prolong the home’s useful age.
Maximum Grant Amount: $20,000
Examples of modifications under the Senior Grant Program include:
- Wheelchair ramps;
- Grab bars;
- Widened doorways;
- Non-slip floor covering; and
- Conversions from tubs to roll-in showers.
Additionally, the Program will finance deferred maintenance repairs such as roofing, plumbing, electrical, or heating that are necessary to improve the structural integrity of the home and prolong the home’s useful age.
Eligible homeowners may receive a grant of up to $20,000
for mobility and functionality repairs.
