The Home Rehabilitation Program (HRP) provides funding to eligible homeowners in the City of Atlanta and Fulton County to repair, improve, and remove health or safety hazards from dwellings. Assistance with eligible repairs is based on income qualifications. Cases may be prioritized for households with vulnerable members such as young children and elderly adults.

Fulton County has partnered with Meals on Wheels Atlanta (MOWA) to deliver HRP services. MOWA will serve as the primary point of contact for the HRP. They will be responsible for all day-to-day activities to include (but not limited to), determining eligibility, conducting inspections, and overseeing repair work. MOWA is a non-profit agency that offers a lifeline of services to the most underserved and most vulnerable demographics in Atlanta. MOWA has more than 20 years of experience providing home repair services for seniors, veterans, and low-income single-family homeowners within the metro Atlanta area.

The eligible repairs for the Home Rehabilitation Program include:

• Electrical - repair of breakers, panels, or wiring
• HVAC systems - repair or replace
• Roof - replacement or repair
• Plumbing Interior - water lines, sewer lines, and toilets
• Water heater - replacement or repair
• Accessibility issues
• Weatherization
• Code Violations
• Health and Safety Issues

“With the rising cost of home repair, it is refreshing to know that we can offer this program to benefit our citizens in need for essential upkeep,” said Stan Wilson, Fulton County Community Development Director.
