Rebuilding Together’s Safe & Healthy Homes Initiative responds to the great needs of our nation’s
elderly and disabled homeowners and their wish to live in safe, warm and dry homes with dignity and independence. This initiative
specializes in educational training; provides technical assistance to Rebuilding Together’s national affiliate network;
collects and disseminates the best practices for conducting home repair projects; writes, produces, and disseminates material
on home safety and energy efficiency; and serves as an informational resource for affiliates and the public at large.
Rebuilding Together's Disaster Recovery & Reconstruction initiative serves to rebuild the houses of low-income
homeowners and the capacity of our affiliate network in times of disaster. Initially created as a response to hurricanes
Katrina and Rita in the fall of 2005, Disaster Recovery and Reconstruction maintains an enormous commitment to the Gulf Coast
and has pledged to Rebuild 1000 homes.
Rebuilding Together’s Veterans Housing Initiative was created to meet the growing needs of veterans from past
and present wars. The initiative serves to fill the gaps in housing modifications and repair services that retired and active
service men and women struggle to meet. Working in partnership with corporate sponsors, Rebuilding Together’s Veterans
Housing Initiative strives to provide safe and accessible housing for all low-income veterans.
