2020 Labor Day Wildfires Survivors Last Call for HARP Applications

December marks the final opportunity for survivors of the 2020 Labor Day wildfires to apply for the Homeowner Assistance and Reconstruction Program (HARP).

KDRV reports that, since opening in March 2024, HARP has assisted 70 survivors in buying a new home, and has reimbursed 31 other homeowners.

The program is part of ReOregon, funded by a $422 million grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Oregon Housing and Community Services (OHCS) has expanded eligibility criteria for recovery pathways to help more survivors apply before the December 31 deadline.

Those wanting to learn more or to apply can call the ReOregon Call Center at 877-510-6800 or 541-250-0938.
