ResourcesThe AuSable Valley chapter of Habitat is a small group that relies on local donations of funds and volunteer labor. We try to help at least one family with housing each year to two years, but we understand that the need is greater than our resources, so have collected information about additional agencies that provide assistance.
Please contact these agencies to find out more, or ask us to help you obtain and complete applications forms. We have copies and can review them with you. Housing Assistance Program of Essex County, Inc.
