Habitat Hammers Back: Hurricanes Harvey and Irma Response

Habitat for Humanity has local organizations throughout the regions affected by the storms. With their help, we are assessing the shelter and housing needs and developing response options. Long-term plans will be determined after our evaluations and will depend on the level of support we receive from donors, volunteers, corporate partners and other community organizations.

Habitat Hammers Back: Habitat for Humanity Mobilizes Harvey Response, Calls for Support
Habitat is deploying Mobile Response Units and Disaster Corps volunteers to the region to begin rapid assessments as flood waters recede. There are about 30 local Habitat for Humanity offices throughout the parts of southeast Texas and southwest Louisiana affected by the storms. With their help, Habitat for Humanity International is assessing the shelter and housing needs in areas impacted by Hurricane Harvey and developing response options.

In addition to long-term housing repair and construction, Habitat’s response will include organizing volunteers and resources to help with the cleanup and mucking out homes damaged by wind and flood waters.
