Program details

How it works

Handyworker partners with licensed general contractors to complete minor home repairs and accessibility improvements at no cost to eligible homeowners. The program is administered by the Los Angeles Housing Department and is designed to improve safety and livability by correcting hazards that could cause injury or illness.

What the money covers

The official program page does not list fire-specific measures or dollar amounts. It describes general minor home repairs and accessibility improvements paid for by the program.

Timing and availability

The page states there is currently a waitlist for the entire San Fernando Valley.

Who the program is for

The page says the goal is to help seniors and people living with disabilities live independently longer and age in place. It also notes the property must be in the City of Los Angeles and must be a single-family home; most mobile homes should qualify. Multi-family properties are not eligible.
