SINGLE FAMILY REHAB PROGRAM


We are not currently accepting applications for this program. Check back soon for more details!

The Single Family Rehab Program is available to those residences in Kankakee who have been assessed and determined to have a health or safety hazard within the structure of the residence. The property owner must meet HUD income eligible guidelines and agree to the terms of assistance.

How It Works:

    Assistance is provided based on the existence of extremely serious conditions where immediate action is required, then a “first come, first serve” basis. The program provides one-time assistance to qualified homeowners with emergency housing problems that pose a serious and immediate threat to the health, safety, or welfare of the household. All minor home repair improvements must remedy substandard conditions or eliminate a safety hazard.
