Both my husband and I are disabled, he has MS and I have COPD. Our bathroom and bedrooms are upstairs and is becoming more & more difficult to climb the stairs several times a day. If we could obtain the form we could apply for assistance to build a bedroom and bath on the first floor.
Thanking you in advance for any help you can give us.

Contact your local MS society for help.

There are programs and/or insurance that will help pay for a chair lift for your stairs but I doubt any will pay to remodel your house. I think they would expect you to adopt the less costly solution of moving to someplace with bedroom and bath on the main floor.

grants are not available to individuals but there are agencies that can help you get the things you need most likely in your neighborhood. see the following article on grants
