RTDCA improves the homes of residents facing economic challenges, ensuring they can live in safe and healthy environments. Many of the neighbors it serves – elderly residents, individuals with disabilities, and households with lower incomes – lack the resources to address critical home repairs, turning emergency needs like fixing plumbing leaks and installing handrails into much larger problems. RTDCA provides these repairs and renovations at no cost, tailoring accessibility modifications to each household’s unique requirements. Known for its rapid response, it activates skilled volunteers and resources to fix safety hazards as quickly as possible, completing over 1,000 home repairs a year. RTDCA also strengthens community infrastructure by renovating shared spaces in under-served neighborhoods like schools and parks. Its impact is both swift and lasting – building a thriving region that everyone can call home.
