Meeting Results in Suggestions for HNIA’s 2012 Loan Programs
On January 12th, HNIA celebrated the roll out of our 2012 Loan Programs with a party at our monthly General Meeting. There are three programs, a forgivable loan for homeowners living on limited incomes, a low interest loan program for people improving their homes, and a loan fund for landlords who want to repair their small rental properties. Residents suggested that we include the ability to use these loans for ramps or other home modifications for people with disabilities. The board agreed to take this up with GMHC.
