Homeowners

PROCESS

Approximately six to nine months before building begins, Habitat conducts orientation sessions for prospective applicants. Attendance at one of the Homeowner Applicant Orientations is required of all applicants. These meetings will be posted in the Events Section of this website when scheduled.

At Homeowner Applicant Orientations, the applicant receives useful information on Habitat for Humanity and the application process. Applications are accepted about six months prior to groundbreaking. The Family Selection committee reviews applications and selects qualified families for home visits. The final selection is made prior to the house groundbreaking.


More details can be found in the prospective applicant Sample Letter
