This program provides eligible elderly (62 years or older) and/or disabled Broward County residents with a deferred payment loan for housing modifications and barrier removal to:

• Improve elderly and disabled accessibility
• Provide for health and safety repairs allowing these residents to maintain their independence. Health and safety repairs may include repairs unrelated to accessibility and barrier removal.
