HOME REPAIR PROGRAM

What does the Program Do? 

The Home Repair Program provides assistance to low and moderate income homeowners in Lancaster County to complete necessary repairs to their homes.  Our professional staff will help you address safety issues and comply with local building codes. 

Eligibility for the program is based on income, credit and available equity in your home.
