OT Resource: BC Home Adaptations for Independence Program

 

 

Recently the Province of BC launched the new Home Adaptations for Independence (HAFI) program to help low-income seniors and people with disabilities finance home modifications for accessible, safe and independent living. Eligible homeowners, renters and landlords can receive up to $20,000 per home in the form of a forgivable loan.

 Many seniors and people with disabilities have successfully applied for financial assistance from the program and have made modifications to their home with positive results.

In addition, the HAFI brochure and a one-page information sheet are translated in Chinese and Punjabi. Please feel free to print and display these information sheets for your clients. The translated Chinese and Punjabi brochures are available  online.

 

If you would like printed posters (English) or brochures about the HAFI program, please email hpocommunications@hpo.bc.ca and be sure to include the name and address of your organization, and the number of posters and/or brochures requested.

For more information about the HAFI program, visit BC Housing’s website or call 604.646.7055 or toll-free at 1-800-407-7757 (ext. 7055).
