The Habitat Repairs! Program partners with volunteers, subcontractors, donors, churches, homeowners, families, and individuals to provide critical repairs and weatherization affordably to Catawba County homeowners in need.

Due to the nature of the program, Habitat is unable to respond in an emergency situation, but staff are happy to provide information on other agencies that may be able to respond to repair needs faster than Habitat is able.
