Safe In Place

2026 planning guides

Home Accessibility Costs & Funding

Start with transparent planning ranges, then compare the complete project scope—not just one headline number. Each guide explains the biggest cost drivers and the information needed for a site-specific quote.

Possible assistance

Funding guidance belongs with the project

Benefits and programs are not interchangeable. Start with the relevant modification guide, then verify eligibility and approval before counting assistance in the budget.

Funding & Grants

Local programs, nonprofit assistance, and other funding sources can change over time. The relevant cost guides explain the possibilities supported for that project and what to verify before relying on assistance.

Medicare & Medicaid

Coverage is program-, plan-, eligibility-, and project-specific. Review the funding section in the guide for the modification you are considering, then confirm current benefits and authorization requirements directly with the program.

VA Home Modification Benefits

Several VA pathways may be relevant in different circumstances. Eligibility, medical documentation, project scope, approval, and current limits all matter, so the applicable program should be confirmed before work begins.

Safe In Place does not determine program eligibility or promise coverage. We can help clarify the home modification being considered so the family knows which questions to ask.

Local guidance

Plan for the county where the home is located

Review property conditions, the local permit path, and county resources that can change the next step.

Planning ranges are useful. The real scope depends on the person, the home, and the modification. We can help you understand the next step.
