Lancaster, CA. April 13, 2026 – The City of Lancaster, in collaboration with Habitat for Humanity LA, is excited to announce an upcoming informational session for the Mobilehome Rehab Program. The program offers up to $150,000 in loans to eligible mobilehome owners in Lancaster to assist with necessary home repairs.

Habitat for Humanity LA will be hosting the session to guide residents through the application process and answer questions regarding eligibility and home assessments. The session will take place on Saturday, April 25 from 9 a.m. - 1 p.m. at the Lancaster Community Center, 44611 Yucca Avenue.

“Lancaster thrives when our neighborhoods are strong, and that starts with safe, well-maintained homes,” said Mayor R. Rex Parris. “Working alongside Habitat for Humanity LA, we are proud to offer this lifeline to our mobile home residents. I encourage everyone to attend this session, ask questions, and take the first step toward revitalizing their home.”
