| In
addition to the City’s Residential Rehabilitation
Program, lower income Daly City residents have access
to some nonprofits that offer free home improvements.
These nonprofits help ensure the habitability of the
Daly City housing stock and prevent households from
having to move unnecessarily because they cannot afford
to pay for minor repairs.
North Peninsula Neighborhood Services (NPNS) and Center
for the Independence of the Disabled (CID) provide
year-round home improvement assistance. However, NPNS
covers general home repairs such as replacement or
repair of doors, windows, plumbing fixtures, walls
and ceilings, while CID only assists households with
an elderly or disabled member needing home accessibility
modifications such as grab bars, handrails and ramps.
