When a natural disaster strikes, families and communities are forced to deal with the tragic consequences of loss of life and property. Catholic Charities staff and agencies witness firsthand the difficult struggle impoverished families in poverty face attempting to recover. One of the few federal recovery tools that provide vital resources to survivors with the lowest income is the Community Development Block Grant – Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR).

The House could vote as early as next week on a bill that would permanently authorize the CDBG-DR. Please encourage your representatives to vote in support of H.R. 3702 the “Reforming Disaster Recovery Act”.
