The City of Columbia Community Development Department will provide improved access to the homes of people who are elderly or disabled within the city limits of Columbia. The installations of ramps or rails will provide safer home access. The material for this service will be funded by the City of Columbia and all work will be completed by volunteers.

Medical documentation from the applicant’s primary care physician or other qualified medical practitioner is required to be submitted with the Ramps and Rails application. The medical statement must identify the medical necessity that warrants the installation of a ramp and/or adaptive rail.
