Rebuilding Together Dutchess County is a nonprofit housing organization committed to partnering with volunteers to provide critical home repairs, accessibility modifications and energy-efficiency improvements for low-income homeowners, particularly those who are older adults, individuals living with a disability, families with children, and active and retired members of the armed services.
