HOME ACCESSIBILITY MODIFICATIONS

Additional Information

The purpose of the Home Accessibility Modifications RFP is to fund Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) supportive housing repair projects to improve the accessibility of homes for low- and moderate-income Phoenix residents who may be disabled or are elderly and aging in place. This program will help homeowners and tenants citywide, remove interior and exterior safety hazards on their properties to promote a higher level of self-sufficiency and an increased quality of life. Proposals submitted for this RFP may include improvement projects that remove physical, visual, and auditory barriers, thus improving the accessibility of homes by raising the level of independence for persons with disabilities, and seniors aging in place. The list of housing repair projects includes, but is not limited to, the installation of grab bars or wheelchair ramps, widening doorways, lowering countertops, and replacing bathtubs with walk-in showers. The intent of this program is to increase the accessibility of low- and moderate-income Phoenix households.
