The CT Home Improvement Program is part of Governor Lamont's $30 million CT Home Funds initiative, providing low-interest loans for energy improvements and related housing code repairs. Connecticut's Department of Housing reserved $2 million specifically for a Hartford pilot, with Hartford matching an additional $2 million, creating a $4 million pool targeting homeownership opportunities for Black and Brown residents. Applications are through Capital for Change.
Low-interest loan amounts determined by project scope; Hartford pilot has extra funding.
