Why it matters
When disasters like floods or hurricanes hit Harris County, these workers help families get federal money to fix their homes and rebuild their neighborhoods. They make sure recovery help reaches those who need it most.
If this passes
Five trained workers will continue helping families get federal disaster money, fix homes, and rebuild after floods and hurricanes through 2031.
If this does not pass
Harris County would lose experienced disaster recovery staff who help residents access federal rebuilding funds and navigate recovery programs.
