How to apply for Senior Grant Program (LACDA)
Los Angeles County Development Authority (LACDA)
Who it's for
LACDA's Senior Grant Program provides up to $20,000 in home repair and accessibility grants for low-income homeowners 62 or older in unincorporated Los Angeles County within Supervisorial Districts 1, 2, 4, and 5. Funded by federal CDBG dollars. Covered work includes mobility modifications (wheelchair ramps, grab bars, widened doorways) and deferred maintenance (roofing, plumbing, electrical, heating). The home must be the applicant's primary residence — single-family house, condominium, or townhome — owned for at least 12 months and maintained per state and local code. Stronger grant ceiling than the Handyworker Program and specifically aimed at age-in-place modifications.
This program only serves homeowners in unincorporated areas of Los Angeles County within Supervisorial District 1, 2, 4, or 5. Most addresses inside incorporated cities (and District 3) are not eligible. Confirm your home is in an eligible unincorporated community using the eligible-communities list on the program page, or call the Senior Grant contact line, before you apply.
What you'll need
- Proof of homeownership (deed or recent property tax bill)
- Proof that home is located in unincorporated LA County within Supervisorial District 1, 2, 4, or 5
- Proof of ownership for at least 12 months
- Proof of age (62+)
- Proof of household income (Social Security award letter, pension statements, tax return)
- Government-issued photo ID for all adults in the household
