PolicyLink presents the first comprehensive look at housing recovery programs in Louisiana since Katrina, Rita, and floods destroyed hundreds of thousands of homes.A Long Way Home: The State of Housing Recovery in Louisiana 2008 shows where rental housing is returning, the funding gaps that remain for far too many homeowners, and snapshots of the heavily damaged neighborhoods that still exist.
Full of extensive data and information on the rebuilding process, this report puts hard numbers on the experiences of residents on the ground.
Progress has been made, but Louisianans still face a long road home.
