Larry Liotta, Construction Coordinator for Manhattan Area Habitat for Humanity, completed the necessary coursework at a training in Manhattan to earn the Certified Aging In Place Specialist (“CAPS”) designation offered through the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB).
In a program launched in 2002 by AARP and NAHB, the “CAPS” designation enables professionals from the private, non-profit and public sectors who complete the three-day program to assess both the needs of individuals to function well within their homes and the ability of their homes to provide for their safety, comfort and accessibility.
