Community Adaptation Program

NORA is a subrecipient to the City of New Orleans on the $141 National Disaster Resilience Competition grant awarded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The Community Adaptation Program will provide $5 million investment residential stormwater management improvements to owner-occupied single family homes with household incomes at or below 80% of Area Median Income located within the Gentilly Resilience District. NORA expects the program to divert and detain stormwater runoff on over 200 properties with an average grant award between $10,000 and $25,000. The improvements are designed and installed at no cost to the homeowner.
