This program is funded by the Illinois Housing Development Authority (IHDA) and administered by North West Housing Partnership (NWHP). The HRAP R2 grant program may address long over-due home repairs that affect the health and safety of households. Low to moderate income homeowners may qualify for home repairs to be performed by professional contractors. This is a forgivable loan forgiven after 5 years (3 years for Roof only). *Please contact NWHP for grant details. NWHP has a substantial wait list. Wait list placement does NOT guarantee assistance.
