Disaster Recovery Reallocation Program (DRRP)

Disaster Recovery Reallocation Program (DRRP)

The Disaster Recovery Reallocation Program (DRRP) is designed to utilize de-obligated and unutilized Community Development Block Grant for Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) funds to provide the opportunity for communities with outstanding unmet need to access remaining CDBG-DR funds. The funds are allocated through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and therefore must adhere to federally mandated deadlines and policies.

The call for projects was released Oct. 21 and closed Nov. 21, 2024, at 5:00 p.m. (Central Time). Only projects submitted by this time will be eligible for scoring and potential funding. 

The GLO held a webinar on Oct. 22, 2024, to provide information relating to the call for projects process and scoring criteria. You can watch the webinar video here. Have questions? Please submit to cdr@recovery.texas.gov with the subject “DRRP Question”.
