Home Modification


Within the City of Birmingham

  • Within the City of Birmingham, we assist low-income home owners with disabilities to make their homes more accessible. The mission of this program is to allow people to get in and out of their home safely and use their bathroom as safely and independently as possible.
  • Examples include modifications such as ramp construction, widening doorways, installing grab bars, removing tubs, and installing visual alarm systems.
