HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- If your home was impacted during Hurricane Beryl or the May 2024 derecho, the City of Houston is offering up to $300,000 in repairs for damaged houses.

The program is only open to homes within the Houston City Limits.
Applicants must also earn at or below 80% of the area median income to be eligible.
