TUSCALOOSA | Tornado survivors received answers about how to make the transition from temporary to permanent housing at the Housing and Recovery Expo in Tuscaloosa.

The Alabama Housing Task Force, working with the Alabama Emergency Agency and FEMA, sponsored the expo. Community businesses, voluntary organizations, the U.S. Small Business Administration, and other state and federal agencies also participated in the expo. Open house attendees were also assisted with topics such as crisis counseling, foreclosures, insurance and legal aid.
Thomas Wilder, manager of Alagasco’s Rebuild Assistance Program, said that people typically wanted to know if rebates or grants are available for energy needs.
“We’re trying to get involved with the community and serve,” Wilder said. “We just want to make sure that they citizens are able to come back to us.”
