CDP – Housing Support Service<\/span><\/h1>\n

Intending to assist 3000 families (15000 individuals) in Paravur Taluk, through value added, appropriate and affordable Housing solutions,\nHabitat for Humanity India with the support of Center for Disaster philanthropy has implemented Housing Support Services in the area.\nThe Housing Support Services in Kerala is in the reconstruction phase of Kerala Floods Disaster response of HFH India to assist\nfamilies to repair, retrofit or reconstruct a safe and durable house.<\/p>\n

The Housing Support Services plays a key role in empowering the families\/communities to get Technical services, financial education,\nand optimum utilization of the funds available. HFH India Housing Support Services are a value added service to the families and the\ntechnical people (Masons) on land use planning, site selection, hazard specific disaster resilient house design and plan development,\nestimation, advising on cost effective durable materials, cultural practices, ensuring local building codes and specifications are followed\nin the construction work. The HSS hub will conduct on – site training for the Technical people and Construction Planning, Supervision and\nManagement training to the family members. The HFH India HSS center will develop IEC disaster resilient safe construction techniques, House\nrepairs and House maintenance as part of disaster risk mitigation. HFH will develop mobile based technical assistance program for families to\nobtain information instantly.<\/p>\n

As part of 2018 post-floods, Rebuilding Kerala efforts, Habitat India launched a pilot Housing Support Service (HSS) initiative in North Paravur\nMunicipality. HSS was designed here as a Hub and Spoke model with a Core Team of 2 persons functioning out of the Municipal Office (Hub) and\nalso supporting a nearby Panchayat (Spoke). At HFH India, we define Housing Support Services, or HSS, as \u2018A demand-driven\u2019 service or product\ndesigned to enable a household to:<\/p>\n\n

\n
    \n \t
  • Reach an adequate housing quality standard in secure tenure, basic services, and shelter durability and space.<\/li>\n \t
  • Make shelter-related improvements in health, safety and livelihood.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n

    HSS has become a significant \u201cscaling\u201d strategy, serving more families than engaging in direct construction. It provided us with an opportunity to\nreach out to more low income families by collectively engaging with multiple stakeholders such as government institutions, housing service companies\n(MFIs, Banks and NBFCs), Local NGO partners \/ CBOs and beneficiaries. HSS creates awareness, provides knowledge and access to resources thereby\nimproving the standard of living of the beneficiary communities. This complements our core competencies in housing and sanitation. HFH India\u2019s\napproach to HSS uses housing value chain analysis to identify gaps in the informal incremental housing process.

    \nKerala was recently deluged with devastating floods affecting over a million households. As part of Rebuilding Kerala, as also encompassing\nexisting schemes of the Government India (PMAY) and Government of Kerala for affordable housing (LIFE Mission), the Ernakulam District has\nlaunched an initiative to provide houses to the low income families across the district.<\/p>\n\n
