Safe and Sound Home Safety Program

Rebuilding Together Houston's Safe and Sound Services Program starts with trained volunteers checking 25 safety points inside and outside your home. Licensed contractors then install what you need most - handrails for stairs, wheelchair ramps, air conditioning units, ceiling fans, carbon monoxide detectors, air purifiers, and other safety equipment. All work costs nothing, and the program welcomes everyone regardless of income, background, or ability to pay.

About Rebuilding Together Houston

Repairs and revitalizes homes for low-income homeowners, keeping Houston neighbors safe and rooted in their communities.

The program serves every Houston neighborhood, with current focus in the East End and 77011 area. Many participants are seniors on fixed incomes, families with disabilities, or veterans who need help but cannot afford repairs.

In Houston's extreme heat, working AC can be life-saving, and proper handrails prevent falls that send thousands of older adults to the hospital each year. Safe housing keeps families healthy, helps seniors age in place, and when our neighbors have safe homes, our whole community gets stronger with stable property values.

Call Rebuilding Together Houston or visit their website to apply. They review applications year-round and schedule work based on need and volunteer availability, so you'll hear back about timing once they assess your situation.
