Tenant who uses a wheelchair will get a first-floor unit thanks to JALA’s help
Janie, 68, lives in a Low-Income Housing Tax Credit property along with her service dog. She has lived in the same unit for seven years, during which she has developed increasing disabilities. She now uses a wheelchair, and it became difficult for her to live on a higher floor and take care of herself and her dog, as she is no longer able to use the stairs. She therefore asked the property manager to be moved to a first-floor unit.
