Home Modifications | Gary Sinise Foundation Our Injured, Ill, & Aging Heroes Are Struggling At Home Many veterans and first responders are struggling in inaccessible homes, accepting their circumstances as part of the cost of service. But every hero deserves to feel safe, capable, and at peace in the comfort of their own home.

High thresholds, tight spaces, and wet surfaces make the most private and intimate tasks impossible to do alone. Unusable Kitchens & Storage With sinks, ovens, and cabinets just beyond reach from their wheelchair, our heroes lose the most basic act of self sufficiency—feeding themselves.

Narrow Doorways & Hallways Many heroes live in homes with rooms and hallways too narrow to safely maneuver their wheelchairs, cutting them off from their family and friends. Stairs & Inaccessible Areas Simple tasks like tucking their kids into bed are impossible due to inaccessible areas, affecting their mental and emotional health.

But these life-changing home modifications can unlock every square foot and restore the home base they desperately need. Extra wide showers, wheelchair-ready sinks, and customizations ensure our heroes can maneuver easily and practice their daily hygiene safely. We’re making sure sinks, ovens, and cabinets are accessible to our heroes, allowing them to get back to cooking and sharing meals with loved ones.

When the front door is inaccessible, we’re building ramps and lifts to ensure that returning home is always a joy. Mobility Considerations & Smart Technology Seamless flooring provide full mobility throughout the home. Smart tech lets heroes control their home with a touch of a button.

Relief For Loved Ones & Caregivers As Well These home modifications can positively affect the whole family. As their hero regains their independence with less reliance on others, a balanced home dynamic is also restored. Homes have been modified or retrofitted for wounded heroes in need.
