What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Thrive West Central is partnering with USDA Rural Development to offer financial assistance to low-income homeowners for housing repairs under the Section 504 home repair program. Eligible homeowners can receive low-interest loans up to $40,000 or grants up to $10,000 for health and safety hazards if they are age 62 or older. The program requires applicants to own and occupy a home in an eligible rural area, meaning homes inside Terre Haute city limits do not qualify.
