The Kentucky State Director of the U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Development announced grants have been made available to assist in recovery from destructive weather in 2022.
On Thursday, Dr. Tom Carew announced people living in 26 Kentucky counties are eligible for funding, but their homes must be located in presidentially declared disaster areas.
“Destructive weather like the historic flooding that impacted Eastern Kentucky destroyed homes and further exacerbated the affordable housing crisis in the region,” said Carew. “That’s why the Biden-Harris administration and USDA stand ready to help thousands across rural Kentucky access the resources they need to rebuild their homes, their communities and their lives. We do this work because we know that rural America is home to millions of people who make up America’s spirit and character.”
