Home & Heart Spring Listings
Home & Heart is an affordable housing solution that matches adults in Butte County who have a room to share, with individuals in need of affordable housing. While H&H prioritize services for older adults, their program is open to all eligible adults who have room to share (home providers) or those seeking affordable housing (home seekers).
