Habitat for Humanity of Hall County will officially open up the application cycle for its homeownership program on Feb.1.
The program is designed to aid individuals and families in need of affordable housing by providing the experience of home ownership. The application cycle will be open until Feb. 15, 2025.
As a part of the new application process, the nonprofit will hold an informational Homeownership Application Orientation at 1:30 p.m. on Feb.1 at the Hall County Library on the Downtown Square in Gainesville.
