About the organization:

Rebuilding Together AAC is part of a national nonprofit, REbuilding Together. We offer two programs, Neighborhood Revitalization and Safe and Healthy Housing. Our Safe and Healthy Housing program is our most prominent. Through a collaboration with National Center for Healthy Housing, Rebuilding Together developed a set of 360 specs for common repairs based on the Eight Principles of Healthy Homes. This includes a 25-point framework that targets significant health and safety hazards in homes. Our 25 Health and Safety Priorities provide a common framework for our affiliate network to complete comprehensive in-home assessments and set repair objectives based on each homeowner’s special needs and health status. Each home has varying degrees of need and some projects may only address a single priority, such as installing a ramp, or several items, such as roof repair, energy efficiency upgrades, and grab bars. This framework also provides a means for Rebuilding Together affiliates to track and report the results of our repairs, helping them to set clear expectations with our clients and provide a platform for further partnership and collaboration to meet unmet needs.

When a homeowner applies to our program - we don't just address the problem that they applied for. We will also assess the home based on the 25 Standards of a Safe and Healthy Home to see what else needs to be repaired, and will work hard to make sure we also take care of those needs (within budget - sometimes the home repairs are so extensive that we need to refer to other agencies to get those items fixed). We heavily rely on volunteers and in kind donations to have as much of an impact on the home while keeping costs low. 

Attached, is a 25 Standards of a Safe and Healthy Home document, and also our board commitment form.
