Thrive West Central has launched the Owner-Occupied Rehabilitation Program in Montgomery County.
Funding from the Office of Community and Rural Affairs has partnered with Thrive to make this opportunity possible. This $450,000 grant is designed to provide financial assistance (up to $25,000) for select rehabilitation activities. These funds will help improve the quality of life for some living in the west-central region of Indiana.
Selective rehabilitation activities include water heater repairs/replacements, heating and/or cooling repairs/replacement, roof repairs/replacements and exterior ADA accessibility (such as ramps and handrails). To be eligible for this program, individuals must live in Montgomery County, own and live in the home for which they seek funds and meet HUD low-to-moderate income limits.
Partners include the Area Agency on Aging, the Montgomery County Health Department, the Veteran’s Office and the county trustee offices. Applications are available at these sites and can also be found at https://wkf.ms/42j5Ljc.
