West Street Recovery

Houston, Tx

West Street Recovery (WSR) is a grassroots disaster recovery and preparedness organization that works in Northeast Houston. WSR was founded in response to Hurricane Harvey and has helped families prepare for and recover from Tropical Storm Imelda, the Covid-19 pandemic, Winter Storm Uri, and the general conditions of environmental and racial injustice that impact our community. Through providing direct material assistance to recover and rebuild from disaster, we have formed long-term relationships of trust and mutual support with families. These relationships serve as the foundation of our community organizing, power building and mutual aid work..

Mission
West Street Recovery’s mission is to connect communities to the resources that they need to not only rebuild after climate disasters such as Hurricane Harvey, but to build communities that are resilient, secure and stronger than before.
