Applicants who requested assistance from the City of Houston’s Homeowners Assistance Program; and were not contacted directly by the GLO, will continue being served by the City of Houston. These applicants should request updates on the status of their case from the City of Houston's Harvey Homeowner Assistance Program: https://recovery.houstontx.gov/hoap/.
