Homeowner Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Program (HRRP)

How it works

The Homeowner Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Program (HRRP) is a state-funded disaster recovery program run by the Georgia Department of Community Affairs using federal disaster funds. It provides financial assistance to eligible homeowners whose homes were damaged by a federally declared disaster. (dca.georgia.gov)

What the money covers

The program can pay for:

• Rehabilitation of existing homes, from minor to major repairs
• Reconstruction of homes that are substantially damaged or beyond repair
• Elevation of homes located in flood zones, if required
• Temporary relocation assistance, if applicable (dca.georgia.gov)

The official pages do not provide a headline dollar cap in the text surfaced here, and the amount can depend on the homeowner’s damage and program rules. (dca.georgia.gov)

Timing and deadlines

The DCA HRRP portal is open, and the program is processing applications on a first-come, first-served basis. DCA says funding is limited and that once all available funding is allocated, no additional projects will be considered. The application deadline shown on the CDBG-DR page is September 4, 2026 at 5:00 PM EST for the broader disaster recovery application portal. (dca.georgia.gov)
