The City of Garden Grove is launching its Home Repair Program on December 2, 2024, offering grants of up to $5,000 to assist qualified low-income homeowners with minor home repairs. These grants do not need to be repaid but require homeowners to contribute at least $500 toward the repair costs. The program does not cover major repairs exceeding $5,000. Applications will open on December 2, 2024, and can be submitted online at https://apply.ggcity.org/.
Eligible repairs include both interior and exterior improvements such as window replacement, electrical repairs, pest control, exterior painting, plumbing repairs, HVAC replacement, handicap accessibility modifications, and addressing building or safety code violations. Homeowners interested in roof repairs or replacements are directed to the City's Re-Roof Loan Program for additional resources.
To qualify for the program, applicants must meet specific income and application requirements. Funding is limited, with approximately ten recipients selected through a blind raffle. This ensures a fair and impartial distribution process among qualified applicants.

This program provides an important opportunity for low-income residents to maintain and improve their homes while enhancing safety and accessibility.
