The Home Recovery Alabama Program is open to residents of Dallas and Autauga counties who were affected by the tornado of January 2023. 

The Alabama Department of Economic and Community Affairs (ADECA) is administering the Home Recovery Alabama Program – Tornado Recovery (HRAP-TR). 

“The tornadoes that struck the city of Selma, Dallas County and Autauga County in January 2023 will long be remembered for the devastation they wrought, and many homeowners and landlords still have unrepaired damage to their homes,” ADECA Director Kenneth Boswell said. “While the funding is limited, our goal with this program is to help as many homeowners make repairs as funds allow.”

The total fund is $13.3 million. Anyone who is approved for funding does not have to repay it so long as it is put towards repairing tornado-damaged homes. 

To apply, visit homerecoveryal.com or call (251) 265-7958. 

Applications can be made in person at an official Intake Center located at 124 Broad Street in Selma. It is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Monday through Friday.
