	<p>For this week&rsquo;s blog post, we have compiled a list of resources that can help Texans affected by Hurricane Harvey find temporary shelter or rental housing, file an insurance claim, postpone their mortgage payment, or find employment.</p>

<h5>Need Temporary Shelter?</h5>

<p>Visit the&nbsp;<a href="http://www.redcross.org/get-help/disaster-relief-and-recovery-services/find-an-open-shelter?utm_source=HUD+Exchange+Mailing+List&amp;utm_campaign=daa6e39f77-Preparing+Homeless+for+Hurricane+Matthew+-+10%2F6%2F16&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_term=0_f32b935a5f-daa6e39f77-18503533" target="_blank">Red Cross Shelter Finder</a>&nbsp;or call 866-438-4636 to find the closest open shelter.</p>

<h5>Looking for Temporary Rental Housing?</h5>

<h5>Need FEMA Assistance for Temporary Housing, Home Repairs, Etc.?</h5>

<p>FEMA is providing housing assistance that can be used for temporary housing and home repairs and is available to anyone regardless of income. Other FEMA assistance like personal property replacement, vehicle repair or replacement, and moving storage allowances may be available depending on income.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.fema.gov/news-release/2017/08/25/federal-aid-programs-state-texas" target="_blank">Click here</a>&nbsp;for more details.&nbsp;</p>

<h5>Need Help Filing an Insurance Claim?</h5>

<p>The Texas Department of Insurance provides a comprehensive <a href="http://www.tdi.texas.gov/consumer/storms/helpafterharvey.html" target="_blank">&lsquo;Help After Harvey&rsquo;</a> resource page that walks homeowners through the process of filing an insurance claim.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The resource page also includes a <a href="http://www.tdi.texas.gov/takefive/home-damaged.html" target="_blank">resource</a> explaining the different types of insurance&nbsp;and a <a href="http://www.tdi.texas.gov/takefive/filing-home-claim.html" target="_blank">step-by-step guide</a> on how to file a claim.</p>

<h5>Worried about Your Mortgage Payment?</h5>

<p>Homeowners impacted by Hurricane Harvey may qualify for forbearance, a temporary suspension or reduction of their mortgage payment.&nbsp; <a href="https://www.fhfa.gov/Homeownersbuyer/MortgageAssistance/Documents/Hurricane-Relief-Consumer-Flyer.pdf?utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=govdelivery" target="_blank">Click here</a> to view a resource put together by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac that summarizes the mortgage relief options available and provides a list of helpful resources.</p>

				<p>
	TSAHC was created in 1994 as a self-sustaining nonprofit housing organization. At TSAHC we believe that every Texan deserves the opportunity to live in safe, decent and affordable housing. Our programs target the housing needs of low-income families and other underserved populations in Texas who do not have acceptable housing options through conventional financial channels. All TSAHC programs are offered statewide, with special attention given to rural areas and other select target areas.</p>
