Housing Program Update

Looking for housing rehabilitation assistance? While DURA is no longer administering Emergency Home Repair (EHR), Renter/Homeowner Access Modification Program (RHAMP) or Single Family Rehabilitation (SFR) programs, we're committed to helping residents find the right resources.

Emergency Home Repair (EHR) and Single Family Rehabilitation (SFR) are no longer available in Denver. Residents seeking information about RHAMP can contact Colorado Housing Connects at 844-926-6632.

If you received a housing rehabilitation loan or grant through DURA in 2025 or earlier, DURA will continue to serve your needs related to those prior services.
