Together, we are serving the Treasure Valley through shelter.
Applications are available only during an Application Period. Typically there is a one to a two-year gap between Application Periods.
The 2023 application period has closed as of Friday, April 28, 2023. Please check back for future application periods.
The Family Selection Committee evaluates all complete applications to determine whether income requirements have been met. Next, a credit check will be performed on each. If these areas are unsatisfactory, the applicant will be sent a letter stating why their application has been denied. All denied applicants are welcome to re-apply in the future.
Applicants who have met the income and credit requirements will be visited in their home by a team of two Family Selection Committee members to determine willingness to partner, assess housing needs, and verify residency.
The committee will meet to determine what recommendations they will make to the Habitat Board of Trustees. The board makes the final decision, and applicants will be sent a letter stating either that they have been approved for the Habitat program or stating why their application has been denied.
Our program is not a quick housing solution. It takes a minimum of 18 months, typically longer, from the time of application before a family can move into their Habitat home.
Note: Meeting all application requirements does not guarantee family selection.
End-of-year giving is vital to our mission of building strength, stability, and self-reliance in the Treasure Valley. Support us through Avenues for Hope, where your donation can help us win additional prizes and multiply your impact.
Prefer another way to give? Donations via our website or mail are always welcome.
Thank you for keeping Treasure Valley Habitat for Humanity and the families we serve in your heart this year.
