Mutual Self-Help ProgramThe Mutual Self-Help program provides assistance to very low and low income individuals willing to participate in the construction of their home. It is a requirement that at least 65% of the home's construction be completed by the individual(s) who along with 10 - 11 other families will work together as a group. Participants are required to attend Pre-Purchase and Homeownership Education class and commit to 2080 hours of construction labor. A skilled Housing America construction supervisor provides technical assistance during the construction process. The construction processes takes approximately 10 to 12 months to complete.
