Description
Our Safe and Healthy Housing practice model is the foundation of our home repair and modification work. Rebuilding Together works to advance health equity by improving health and housing outcomes for our neighbors in need. Through a collaboration with the National Center for Healthy Housing, Rebuilding Together developed a set of 360 specs for common repairs based on the Principles of Healthy Homes. This includes 25 Health and Safety Priorities that address significant health and safety hazards in homes. Each home has varying degrees of need and some projects may only address a single priority, such as installing a ramp, or several items, such as roof repair, energy efficiency upgrades, and grab bars. These priorities provide a way for Rebuilding Together Northern Nevada to track and report the results of repairs, helping us set clear expectations with our clients and provide a platform for further partnership and collaboration.
