Is it possible to get a grant for a secondary suite to be used by a family member. (not necessarily senior nor disabled) My husband is the disabled and senior person, and we are the homeowners who need help in order to stay in our home.

Hello,
Just wondering if I could qualify for some kind of grant for the grany suite, which is in the house I purchased,I am a single mother and have two children, and now have found out two years later that the septic system doesn’t support the extra people in the house and water features etc. We need a complete new one Installed being told will be arround 25000.00 to 30000.00 to replace. My parents are 81 and 82 one being with a disability. Is there any help here you think I may be intitled too.
Thanks
Laurie

We have done many renovations in our home to accomodate elderly and handicapped but have never applied for any type of assistance. Currently we have one gentleman who has resided with us for approximately 15 years. He suffers from schizophrenia and now dementia. He is 67 years of age. We have one woman who is 86 years of age this year and we converted our garage into a bedroom for her as she has a walker and cannot use stairs. We had to put in a ramp for her. We hage another gentleman who suffers from emotional illness and lives with us on a temporary basis when he cannot cope. My husband is retired on a disability income with very poor help but we both maintain the care of our clients. We are currently renovating our bathroom, need to renovate a bedroom for a couple who are looking for a home and also need to improve the wheelchair ramp that we have going into our home. We also did renovate our powder room on the main floor and added a shower so that our elderly client would have her shower on her level. Up to now we have never had any help from the govenment, but we are struggling and I would like to know if there is any help available to us. We are an incorporated business which we did when we first started our business. Our name is “Good Samaritan Boarding and Lodging Home.” Can you please let me know what assistance is availale to us. I went back to school to obtain a Personal Support Worker Certificate. Our bathroom renovation we are cuurently undergoing is $10,000. Thank you.

My Mother is 77 yrs. she needs to have a certain amount of care and cannot live on her own anymore. I would need to install a separate unit in order for her to live with me. She doesn’t do stairs well do to a balance problem. She would need a separate bed-sit and bath. My home is not built to accomodate handicaps of any kind, there are stairs in and two sets of stairs between bedrooms, living area and recreation/laundry area. It would mean adding on a ramp or ground access unit. Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thank you
