Disaster Recovery represents a critical area that impacts all Americans.

HUD can provide critical housing and community development resources to aid disaster recovery. HUD’s Disaster Recovery Teams are located in offices throughout the country.

HUD has also joined forces with other Federal and state agencies to aid in the implementation of disaster recovery assistance. Under the Federal Response Plan the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the Small Business Administration (SBA) offer initial recovery assistance.
