The Cape Cod and Islands Association of Realtors has recently made some grant funds available to homeowners who's homes sustained damage from the 2019 Harwich Tornadoes. The funds are available in the form of a grant of up to $2,000 per applicant / household for primary homes.

However, housing can be an assortment of options like mortgage payments or renting expenses.

The grant funds were assembled by the CCIAOR, after the federal and state governments indicated that the total damage for the area didn't meet the "threshold" for federal and state aid to be provided immediately. Harwich is the only area that was actually designated as a disaster area from the July tornadoes, even though other areas also saw some damaging winds. If you know someone who in Harwich who was displaced, please let them know about the grant availability.
