Home: Welcome

What we do

The Rio Grande Valley Long Term Disaster Recovery (RGV LTDR) seeks to provide recovery assistance to those who have experienced damage from disasters living in the Rio Grande Valley (including Cameron, Hidalgo, Starr and Willacy Counties).

​

The RGV LTDR

(1) works to organize volunteer labor and repair homes to help those affected to repair their own housing and assist in arranging repairs by third parties when possible,

​

(2) seeks to provide those affected by disaster with construction materials for housing repairs, as funds allow.
