In 2021, with start-up funds from Superior Health Foundation, we launched our Ramp Program to provide Marquette County residents with access to temporary and permanent ramps.
For residents arriving home from the hospital, rehab facility or other care facility in need of immediate, safe access to their home, we can install a temporary metal ramp for up to 6 weeks at no cost to the individual.
For homeowners with ongoing needs, a permanent wooden ramp option is available with the cost being based on the household's income.
Applicants must be Marquette County residents. Permanent ramps are available only to homeowners with the cost based on the household income, with low-to-moderate incomes qualifying for free or reduced cost ramps. There are no income qualifications for temporary ramps.
Ramps are on a first come, first serve basis. Not all homes are suitable for a ramp, which will be determined by our construction crew.
Applications are available to homeowners through any of the following:
