Volusia County homeowners who still need help making repairs or who are seeking reimbursement for work already completed due to Hurricane Ian have until 11:59 p.m. Tuesday, April 29, to apply for assistance through the County’s Transform386 initiative. Funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Community Development Block Grant – Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) program, the Homeowner Recovery Program offers financial support for repairs, reconstruction, replacement, and reimbursement of eligible storm-related expenses.
So far, the program has helped residents rebuild and recover, with 48 projects completed, 102 homes currently under construction, and 458 active cases under review. Homeowners are encouraged to take this opportunity to apply before the deadline passes. To learn more, determine potential eligibility, or start an application, visit www.transform386.org or call 386-943-7029.
Additional help will soon be available as HUD has allocated $133.5 million in CDBG-DR funding to support Volusia County’s recovery from Hurricane Milton. Households impacted by that storm are expected to be able to apply for assistance starting in July. The County will share updates as more information becomes available.
