Each year, annual programs from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Develop (HUD) fund the construction and maintenance of infrastructure and housing in communities across the country. In addition, Congress has appropriated over $45 billion to HUD since 2000 to fund disaster recovery activities. These investments can and should be built to last by relying on evidence-based approaches that take into account our best understanding of future risk. Doing so will increase the resilience of communities to natural hazards, such as tropical storms, tornadoes, and wildfire.

The online portal provides links to HUD resources and guidance documents relating to planning, implementation, and natural hazards—grouped by topic areas or types—as well as links to other federal and private organizations that have compiled resources relating to preparedness and recovery.
