COVID-19 Resources for Home Repair Programs

This year isn’t what any of us expected. Our home repair programs have been faced with unprecedented challenges in recruiting and facilitating volunteers, repairing homes, fundraising, staffing, and more. Fortunately, ReFrame Association members are resilient, creative, and generous! Here are some helpful resources that have been shared with us. Simply put, together we are stronger. If you have additional resources to add to this list, please email them to info@reframeassociation.org.
