Do you know someone who needs a new home?

The producers of ABC's "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" are looking in Pennsylvania for a deserving family.

"We're looking for those special people who have amazing strength of character and never give up," says supervising casting producer Adam Drucker. "We want to help people whose stories have really affected their community or made a big difference in other people's lives."

The show's crew last visited Western Pennsylvania in September 2008, when its designers and more than 2,000 local contractors and volunteers tore down a drafty old house in Penn Hills that Frank and Tracy Slaughter shared with their five children. The family's new 3,200-square-foot dream house was revealed on the show in January 2009.

Nominations may be submitted by the family or by a member of their community. Each nomination must include the names and ages of every member of the household, along with a description of the major challenges within the home and a short description of the family story. Anyone submitting a nomination should be sure to explain why the nominated family is deserving, heroic and/or a great role model for their community. If possible, include recent photos of the family and home. All nominations must include a contact phone number.

Nominations should be e-mailed to emhe.penn@gmail.com by March 31. Information: http://abc.go.com/shows/extreme-makeover-home-edition.
