BOSTON (August 9, 2023) – In INSITES this week: Making it easier for families to create and modify accessory dwelling units (ADUs) helps support a comprehensive approach to the affordable housing shortage in Massachusetts. The growth of ADUs is a solution that enables multigenerational living in households where an elder prefers their own space, but still wants or needs the daily support of family. ADUs are also important options for people living with disabilities.
The Massachusetts Home Modification Loan Program (HMLP) is administered by CEDAC, the Massachusetts Rehabilitation Commission (MRC), the Executive Office of Housing and Livable Communities and nine regional agencies across the Commonwealth. The HMLP helps Massachusetts households finance home accessibility improvements – making it possible for individuals with disabilities and older adults to remain in their own homes and communities.
This latest video from CEDAC provides an overview of HMLP and how families considering an ADU project might be eligible for an HMLP loan to fund their project.
