Houston, TX, August 27, 2026 —
Texas homeowners impacted by Hurricane Beryl and other 2024 disasters now have an opportunity to seek financial assistance for recovery efforts. The Texas General Land Office (GLO) has opened applications for repair, reconstruction, and reimbursement programs for residents residing in 27 designated counties across the state.
Homeowners in counties such as Galveston, Fort Bend, Montgomery, and Wharton are specifically identified as eligible to apply for this aid. These programs are designed to help residents rebuild and recover from the damages incurred due to severe weather events that occurred in 2024.
It is important for residents to note specific eligibility criteria regarding location. The GLO has clarified that homeowners within the city of Houston and Harris County, while potentially impacted by disasters, are not eligible for these particular disaster recovery programs. These areas are slated to receive separate disaster recovery allocations, indicating a different approach to assistance for those specific jurisdictions.
The assistance offered by the Texas General Land Office can cover various aspects of recovery, including the costs associated with repairing damaged homes, reconstructing properties, or providing reimbursement for eligible expenses already incurred by homeowners. Further details regarding the application process, required documentation, and specific program guidelines are expected to be made available through the Texas General Land Office’s official channels.
