AUSTIN, TEXAS – As Texans repair or rebuild their homes damaged by
Hurricane Harvey and subsequent flooding, FEMA and home-improvement
stores in Harris County are teaming up to provide free information,
tips and literature on making homes stronger and safer.

FEMA mitigation specialists will be on hand to answer questions and
offer tips and techniques to build hazard-resistant homes using proven
methods that will prevent or reduce damage from future disasters. Most
of the information and the free publications provided are geared to
do-it-yourself work and general contractors.

Recovery topics covered include flood insurance, elevating utilities
and rebuilding flooded homes. Free reference booklets with information
on protecting a home from flood damage will be available. FEMA
