City Of Las Vegas Offers Home Modification Assistance For Older Adults

Programs To Assist Qualifying Homeowners With Up Top $5,000 In Home Modifications

The city of Las Vegas is assisting qualifying older adults with home modifications to improve safety, reduce risk and increase accessibility in homes. The program supports the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) goal of assisting older adults with needed upgrades so that they may remain in their homes.

Potential low-barrier home modifications may include:

• Bathroom Safety - grab bars, comfort-height toilets, tub cuts and handheld showerheads
• Mobility Supports - temporary ramps and handrails
• Kitchen Accessibility - D-shaped cabinet handles and accessible faucets
• Flooring and Transitions - Removal of tripping hazards and uneven surfaces

The program allows resident homeowners to receive up to $5,000 in financial assistance for modifications. There are several qualifications:

• The home must be located within the city of Las Vegas jurisdiction.
• The household's annual income must be less than 80% of the area median income (currently capped at $76,150 for household of four or $53,350 for single occupant).
• The home must be the primary residence of the homeowner.
• The resident must be at least 62 years old.

Funding for the program is provided through a grant from HUD. For more information and to apply, call 702-229-7444, email [email protected] or visit the city's Participant Portal..
