Advocacy Platform

As a national nonprofit committed to home repair as a post-purchase approach to maintaining homeownership for low-income households, the Coalition for Home Repair is positioned to serve as a convener and activator of change for the benefit of homeowners nationwide by shedding light on the need for increased investments and resources into keeping affordable homes in conditions that promote aging-in-place.
