APTOPIX Climate Hurricane Recovery
Lisa Bregenzer poses for a picture on the canal-side lot where her home stood until the passage of last year's Hurricane Idalia, Thursday, May 9, 2024, in Horseshoe Beach, Fla. In July, nearly a year after the storm that upended her and her husband's lives, Bregenzer has finally found hope. Her family was approved for a program that will help them build a new home, and if all goes as planned, they'll move into a stilted two-bedroom house on their lot by year's end.
