The Rock the Block program brings residents and community partners together to collaborate efforts in targeted neighborhoods. Along with Habitat’s community partners, Habitat can assist low-income residents, maintain home ownership rates, improve the housing stock, and increase neighborhood pride. Volunteers and staff work to complete exterior home repair and preservation projects for low-income homeowners and community projects to improve and beautify the neighborhood surrounding the homes.
