Housing Repair and Replacement

Program for Hurricane Ian

REBUILD STRONGER

Rebuild Florida is Florida’s long-term disaster recovery effort, committed to rebuilding impacted communities stronger so they are more resilient to future storms.

The Rebuild Florida Housing Repair and Replacement Program (HRRP) for Hurricane Ian is a centralized housing rehabilitation, reconstruction or replacement program that will prioritize low-to-moderate income families with seniors aged 62 and older, children, and/or disabled household members impacted by Hurricane Ian in the following 20 counties: Brevard, Charlotte, Collier, DeSoto, Flagler, Glades, Hardee, Hendry, Highlands, Hillsborough, Lake, Manatee, Monroe, Okeechobee, Osceola, Pinellas, Polk, Putnam, Seminole, and St. Johns County.

This program is a partnership of FloridaCommerce and the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

The HUD-Approved Action Plan and Program Guidelines establish the following Program Priorities

Households with one or more of the below characteristics will be prioritized and processed as they complete an application:

  • Households with seniors age 62 and older
  • Households with children under the age of 18
  • Households with special needs or special accommodation requirements (disabled)
  • Household with low to moderate income

Please note: prioritization does not “stack.” In other words, families with members both elderly and disabled do not receive higher priority than those with only elderly or disabled members.
