Emergency Home Repair Program

Aug 06, 2007

The Emergency Home Repair program provides grants of up to $5,000 to address substandard
conditions posing a serious threat to the health, safety, and welfare of the household and affecting
the immediate livability of the home. Examples of emergencies that may be covered under the
program include:

- Lack of running water or heating/cooling
- Exposed/hazardous electrical wiring
- Defective sewage system
Assistance will be granted based on priority and the eligibility of the emergency. Eligibility will be
determined after a diagnostic evaluation is conducted by a rehabilitation specialist and/or licensed
contractor.

The Emergency Home Repair program is available to Phoenix residents who own and occupy
their homes, meet income guidelines, and have an eligible housing rehab emergency.
