Welco​​me!

Aging in Place Efficiently partners with qualified older adults to help them remain in their homes for as long as possible. Improvements focus on three areas: comfort, lower energy bills, and home safety. ​

 

​​Home Im​​​pr​​ovements 

The home improvements offered will depend on the needs of each homeowner.  A licensed energy auditor, an occupational therapist, and a social worker will help determine the best options for your home within the available budget.

Examples of potential home improvements include:  

  • insulation in walls and attics 
  • weatherization 
  • appliance upgrades 
  • grab bars in bathrooms 
  • handrails and ramps 
  • improved lighting ​
