Assistance with light chores or maintaining a residence can help seniors and other individuals retain their independence.

We can help!

Community Care Durham’s Home Help/Home Maintenance program matches self-employed, pre-screened CCD Brokered Helpers with CCD clients, based on client needs, so that they can continue to live safely in their own homes.

Please note:

The Home Maintenance program is ongoing for current Home Maintenance clients.

The Home Help program is currently on hold. Check back for updates to this program.

Home Help Client

The service is very helpful. The Brokered Helper does what they are asked to do and I feel comfortable what my needs are and what needs to be cleaned. My helper does a beautiful job.

Home Maintenance Client

I have someone who comes and helps me with my grass and garden, which are very important to me. The house doesn’t look neglected and makes me feel better a little bit. The person does a good job and is very responsible.

Home Help Client

My yard is very important to me but I’m not able to look after it the way I used to. Having someone keep it neat and tidy gives me peace of mind and is much appreciated.
