How can I get help with cleaning and fixing up my apartment?

SCDD Description

Assistance for adult self-advocates to keep their home clean and safe. This is only for chores that are not required by the property manager and for which there is no one else to do these tasks.

DDS Description

A Repair Services provider is an agency that helps keep a person’s home clean, safe, and sanitary by performing heavy chores and minor repairs. Services may include tasks like cleaning floors, windows, and walls, moving furniture for safe access, and basic handyman repairs. They are only provided when no one in the household—or other responsible parties like landlords or community resources—can perform or pay for them.

Example

Your apartment needs a deep cleaning, including windows, walls and floors; or you need help moving heavy furniture to make it easier for you to move around; or you need someone to tack down a loose rug so you don't fall.
