Calcasieu Parish Homeowner Rehabilitation Program

How it works

The parish describes the Homeowner Rehabilitation Program as a Human Services Department program that repairs homes for eligible owner-occupied households. The archived program descriptions say the work is funded with Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) disaster funds tied to hurricanes Katrina, Rita, and/or Isaac, and that the program was created to help homeowners with unmet needs or substandard conditions/code violations.

What the money covers

The older parish program materials say the program is for needed repairs to homes of eligible households. The official records do not provide a detailed list of covered line items on the current page.

Amounts and matching

• No dollar cap is stated on the current official page.
• No match requirement is stated on the current official page.
• The program is described as helping households with a gap in financial means due to limited resources.

How to apply

The current Human Services page points residents to the department’s service directory, but does not spell out an application process for this specific program.

Timing and deadlines

• The official page does not list current open/close dates.
• The parish’s archived materials show the program existed in prior years and was tied to disaster recovery funding.
• Because the current page does not clearly show an active application cycle, the current funding status is uncertain.
