Grants to New York local agencies and nonprofit organizations for home modifications to improve accessibility for individuals with disabilities. Funding is intended for a range of home adaptations and modifications, including modifications to entryways, doorways, and bathrooms, to allow individuals to safely and comfortably continue or return to live in their residences instead of residing in an institutional setting.
Eligible participants are individuals that meet the two criteria below:
The assisted residential unit must be the primary, permanent residence of the eligible participant. Assisted units must be occupied as the permanent residence of a household with income at or below 80 percent of area median income (120 percent of area median income for veterans who are certified by the U.S Department of Veterans Affairs or the Department of Defense as entitled to receive disability payments for a disability incurred in time of war).
Grant funds may be used to assist homeowners to complete accessibility modifications to adapt or retrofit homes for persons with disabilities. Rehabilitation activities reimbursable by grant funds may only include accessibility modifications designed to address the needs of the person with disabilities or substantial difficulty with daily living activity due to aging. Examples include wheelchair ramps and lifts, handrails, doorway widening, and roll-in showers.
