Habitat Dutchess Home Repair Program
Habitat for Humanity of Dutchess County
About This Program
The Grant Map catalogs Habitat Dutchess Home Repair Program in its Poughkeepsie, NY research directory. The record carries audience tags for homeowners; those tags do not establish eligibility or current service coverage.
Habitat Dutchess partners with homeowners in Dutchess and Putnam Counties on essential repairs that restore health, safety, and accessibility. Applicants must own and occupy the home as their primary residence, need a safety-related repair or accessibility improvement, and coordinate with Habitat. Projects may include ramps, grab bars, bathroom modifications, flooring, roof or porch repair, and other work based on need and funding. Assistance is not uniformly free: Habitat says some homeowners may contribute based on income, while many repairs are subsidized. The official page still carries a 2025 closure notice, so current 2026 intake must be confirmed.
No award cap or universal no-cost benefit is published. Project cost and any homeowner contribution depend on income, repair scope, and funding source.
