Louisiana Recovery Authority

The Louisiana Recovery Authority (LRA) was established after the devastating impact of Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Its primary purpose is to oversee and coordinate recovery efforts in the state, focusing on rebuilding communities, restoring infrastructure, and revitalizing the economy. The LRA works with local, state, and federal agencies to allocate funds, manage recovery projects, and ensure that residents receive the support they need to rebuild their lives. The authority aims to promote sustainable growth and resilience against future disasters, ensuring a better future for Louisiana's communities.
