Safe At Home is Christmas in Action's Emergency Repair team. These repairs are performed year around but are limited to approximately $500 per project. Emergency repairs include gas leaks, electrical hazards, wheelchair ramps, heat and air issues, and accessibility issues. Repairs due to storm damage may also be done by the Safe At Home Team.

Christmas in Action is a 501(3)(c) non-profit volunteer organization that repair homes for the elderly, disabled, and low income homeowners in the Cleburne area. Christmas in Action performs most of its projects during the Community Work Day, usually the first weekend in April. Applications are accepted September 1 – November 30 for Work Days taking place the following April.

To help community members meet property mainenance standards the City of Cleburne has created the Helping Occupants Prosper Everyday (HOPE) Community Revitalization Program.  This program is in partnership with Christmas in Action and allows us to do what we do best: help Cleburne residents keep their homes in healthy and safe conditions. This program is only available for homes in the Cleburne city limits.
