Aid to Distressed Families of Appalachian Counties (ADFAC) is a non-profit community based agency, located in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. We are seeking licensed and insured general contractors to construct five, single-family homes on scattered sites in Anderson and Morgan County. The goal is to provide first-time homeowners with safe, quality, and energy-efficient new housing for economically disadvantaged residents.

Contractors will be required to provide documentation of contractor’s license, current liability, and workers compensation insurance. Contractors must be eligible to participate in state or federally funded projects. Each home constructed must meet ENERGY STAR standards and will be HERS rated for energy efficiency.

State officials and local leaders joined Aid to Distressed Families of Appalachian Counties in Oak Ridge on Thursday afternoon to help cut the ribbon on a newly renovated home located in the city’s Highland View neighborhood.

The formerly blighted and vacant home was rehabilitated with the help of a $67,410 Housing Trust Fund grant the Tennessee Housing Development Agency awarded ADFAC in 2015. ADFAC obtained the property on Wainwright Road through a donation.

THDA Executive Director Ralph Perrey told those attending the ribbon cutting that it was important for the state to recognize innovative work being done to improve access to affordable housing.

“This project is exactly the kind of work that our Housing Trust Fund grant program was created to assist,” Perrey said. “We are glad to work with partners like ADFAC who continue to have a positive impact on the communities they serve.” [Read more…]
