BEHIP Waitlist Crisis on Buffalo's East Side | Buffalo News

Buffalo’s BEHIP program, born from tragedy and promise, is drowning in demand—750+ families wait years for critical home repairs, even as the need grows and funding falls short. With aging housing and deep poverty on the East Side, this lifeline for low-income homeowners is stretched beyond capacity.
