In August 2017 Hurricane Harvey left a path of destruction across Hardin County, Texas.

​

Over 5,000 flooded homes and displaced individuals and families

Approximately 2,000 homes received major damage or were destroyed

Less than 13% of our impacted community carried flood insurance coverage

 

Through the vision of County Judge Wayne McDaniel, Hardin County Strong was formed to help individual households recover from Harvey. Hardin County Strong is a 501c3 non-profit organization which operates seperately from Hardin County. For three (3) years Hardin County Strong focused on Harvey recovery and unmet needs.
