The Detroit Home Repair Fund (DHRF) launched with an ambitious goal: to stabilize and improve housing conditions for 1,000 low-income Detroit homeowners. Designed to complement and leverage existing home repair and energy efficiency programs, DHRF focuses on whole-home repairs to preserve affordable homeownership and alleviate widespread disrepair brought on by decades of disinvestment and economic hardship—all at no cost to participating households.
To support continuous learning and explore opportunities for growth after the first three years of the program, Enterprise commissioned a program assessment. Written jointly between Enterprise and the Impact Reporting Team, the report presents findings on the Program’s overall outcomes and impact, starting from the launch of DHRF in May 2022 to May 2025. This report also details DHRF’s role within Detroit’s home repair ecosystem and the Program’s design and approach, as well as the evaluation methods used to produce key findings.
