WEST SACRAMENTO, CA (MPG) – Habitat for Humanity of Greater Sacramento recently announced the opening of the application period for Rock the Block West Sacramento, a two-day community revitalization initiative designed to deliver essential home repairs and beautification improvements for qualified homeowners. The application period for home repairs in West Sacramento will be open now through May 22, inviting residents in the expanded focus area to apply for assistance.

Presented by the City of West Sacramento and Wells Fargo, Rock the Block West Sacramento mobilizes volunteers, community partners, local nonprofits and stakeholders to complete critical repairs that support health, safety, accessibility, energy efficiency, and long-term housing stability for veterans, seniors, disabled homeowners and other longtime residents at risk of displacement.

“Rock the Block West Sacramento represents meaningful partnership in action,” said Kimberly Coley, chief advancement and marketing officer for Habitat for Humanity of Greater Sacramento. “By expanding the focus area this year, we’re able to serve even more homeowners who need help preserving their homes so they can continue living in the community they love.”

Now in its fifth and final year, Rock the Block West Sacramento builds on years of neighborhood investment, volunteer engagement, and partner support. The initiative enhances local quality of life by addressing deferred maintenance and essential repairs that homeowners may otherwise be unable to afford. These improvements not only make individual homes safer and more efficient, but also contribute to stronger, more resilient neighborhoods.

Residents who own homes within the eligible West Sacramento neighborhoods are encouraged to submit applications now. Habitat for Humanity of Greater Sacramento will provide updates, eligibility information and application details at HabitatGreaterSac.org/RockWestSac.
