New Colorado program helps homeowners rebuild after wildfires

GRAND COUNTY, Colo. — Hundreds of homeowners across Colorado are still waiting to rebuild after losing their homes in wildfires.

Wednesday night, the state introduced a new program that can help cover some of the costs for those families. It’s called the State of Colorado Housing Recovery Program.

Disaster-impacted households can apply for grants or loans. Qualifications for the grant program will be based on household income, for grants up to $100,000. The loan program offers funds up to $50,000.
