Habitat for Humanity of the River Valley is a nonprofit organization dedicated to addressing affordable housing needs in Madison, Limestone, and Jackson counties. It partners with families to provide safe, decent, and affordable homes through a zero-interest, 30-year mortgage program. Prospective homeowners must demonstrate financial readiness, complete homeownership education, and contribute volunteer hours in the homebuilding process.

A veteran home repair program is also in development. Habitat for Humanity of the River Valley runs the Habitat ReStore, a nonprofit retail outlet selling donated furniture, appliances, and building materials at below-retail prices to fund housing projects and promote sustainability.
