The City of Garden Grove is encouraging local, qualifying homeowners to apply for the Home Repair Program (HRP), available for low-income Garden Grove residents to receive up to $5,000 for home improvements. Funding will be distributed to approximately 20 eligible applicants, selected through a blind raffle.

Facilitated by the Economic Development and Housing Department, the HRP will provide eligible homeowners with up to $5,000 to address code violations, substandard conditions, and necessary health and safety improvements. The first application period starts Monday, June 2, 2025, at 9:00 a.m., through Monday, June 16, 2025, at 4:00 p.m. A second application period will take place from Monday, December 1, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. through Monday, December 15, 2025, at 4:00 p.m. To view eligibility requirements and apply, visit the Home Repair Program webpage.

The homeowner is required to contribute a minimum of $500 of their own funds towards the repairs. Major repairs to the home that are above $5,000 will not be considered for the Home Repair Program.

Acceptable exterior and interior home repairs include, but are not limited to, window replacement, electrical repairs, pest control, exterior painting, plumbing repairs, heater replacement (HVAC), handicap accessibility modifications, and repairs to address building or safety code violations in the home.

Homeowners looking to repair or replace their roof can visit the City’s Re-Roof Loan Program at www.ggcity.org/re-roof-loan-program.
