We are excited to announce that Thrive West Central has officially partnered with the United States Department of Agriculture Rural Development to help our neighbors access vital home repair support. Keeping your home safe, warm, and secure is essential for a strong community, and we are here to make that process easier.

Through the Single Family Housing Repair program, eligible low-income homeowners in rural areas can access low-interest loans to modernize their homes or grants for elderly homeowners to remove health and safety hazards.

Whether you need to address urgent repairs or improve your living space, our team is ready to help you navigate the application process. Please note that this program is designed for rural locations and is not available for homes within the city limits of Terre Haute.

To see if your home qualifies or to get started with your application, please reach out to Kristi Whitacre at 812-238-1561 extension 224 or visit thrivewestcentral.com to learn more.
