Selection Criteria

Attending our homeowner construction classes will provide you with the skills you need on the job site, as well as the skills you will need to maintain and repair your home.
(Mickey Desai/SCHFH)
Selection Criteria
Homeowners are selected by our volunteer Family Selection Committee on the basis of three criteria:
  1. Need
  2. Ability To Pay
  3. Willingness to partner

The Family Selection Committee is comrpised of a variety of people (board members, Habitat homeowners, volunteers) who evaluate all application materials and collaboratively select new Habitat homeowners.

Habitat follows a very strict nondiscrimination policy regarding gender, family/marital status, sexual orientation, religion, skin color, ethnic background, country of origin, age and disability. We do not discriminate in hiring employees or in selecting homeowners.

Although we are a Christian organization, we do not seek to convert our volunteers or our homeowners. Around the world and within the U.S., we serve those in need, whoever they may be. We gratefully welcome help from all who want to join our fight to make simple, decent housing a matter of conscience.

Government Funding
SCHFH houses are funded in a number of ways. For some of the homes we build in Claton County, we receive funding assistance from the Clayton County Board of Commissioners, through a HOME Investment Partner Act [HOME] Program grant, provided to Clayton County by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development [HUD].
