Hurricane Ida History & Current Recovery Status

In 2021, Hurricane Ida struck Louisiana at 150mph with Category 4 winds, some of the strongest winds to ever hit the Pelican State. The National Hurricane Center reports that Ida produced storm surges of 9-14 feet, making it the second-most damaging hurricane in Louisiana history, after Hurricane Katrina (2005). Nearly a million residents lost power, and neighborhoods along the coast suffered damaged homes, lost vehicles and property, unemployment, and severe financial impacts. As part of the Louisiana Disaster Case Management Program (LADCMP) funded by the State of Louisiana Governor’s Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness (GOHSEP), Endeavors has established offices in Baton Rouge and Gretna, and is currently providing free Disaster Relief and Recovery services for hurricane survivors residing in the following 6 Louisiana parishes:

  • St. Bernard
  • Plaquemines
  • Iberville
  • Assumption
  • St. James
  • Jefferson

Helping Louisianans Rebuild Their Homes & Their Lives

Our Disaster Relief and Recovery (DRR) services connect emergency or disaster victims to services and funding they may not be aware of, helping them recover after an emergency or disaster situation. From safety shelters and evacuation efforts to home repairs, new furniture, and clothing, Endeavors works ceaselessly to help in any way we can.

For Survivors: Start Your Journey to Recovery

If you need assistance recovering from Hurricane Ida, complete the Intake Application below. Your information will automatically be transmitted to a LADCMP Disaster Recovery organization based on your location (note: If you do not reside in one of the 5 parishes above, your case may be assigned to an organization other than Endeavors). Once you submit your Application, a Case Manager will contact you by phone within 24-48 hours.
