Habitat For Humanity International Inc

Neighborhood Revitalization Program: Through our neighborhood revitalization work, we tailor our efforts by partnering locally with residents and community leaders and organizations to best address the real concerns of the community and improve the lives of the people who liver there. Using a data-driven and customizable approach, we focus on first understanding the concerns of the residents and then empowering these residents to lead the projects they want to see. Alongside Habitat, residents work with churches, schools, new and longstanding neighborhood coalitions, local government entities, and other community partners to achieve their goals. Because each neighborhoods challenges and aspirations are different, the framework acts as a guide that can be tailored to the goals of each commnuity. Thats why neighborhood revitalization can look like anything from developing public parks to organizing safety meetings with the local policy department to rehabbing and reopening schools, stores and homes.

Home Preservation Program: Our home preservation program is an outreach initiative that seeks to provide a wide range of opportunities for low- to moderate-income homeowners, including veterans and seniors, who are struggling to maintain their homes because of age, disability or family circumstances. We partner with families to help them reclaim their homes with pride and dignity. The program allows families to stay in their home and avoid the uncertainty, trauma and expense of moving. Projects consist of interior and/or exterior repairs intended to alleviate critical health, life and safety issues or code violations. Volunteer teams work along with subcontractors under the direction of Haabitat for Humanity of the Middle Keys staff members to complete the repairs.
