The importance of home has been at the heart of SBP’s work since we were founded in St. Bernard Parish in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina in 2006. We partner with homeowners to rebuild their homes efficiently and resiliently after a disaster.
No matter who you are, home is about much more than just a roof and four walls. After a disaster, survivors need prompt, predictable recovery assistance to minimize suffering—and restore dignity and hope.
SBP’s rebuilding program rebuilds damaged homes for disaster survivors, prioritizing those with limited income, including families with young children, the elderly, persons with disabilities, veterans, and people who are underinsured or uninsured. Leveraging the power of reputable local contractors, dedicated AmeriCorps members, and service volunteers—and the efficiency of the Toyota Production System—SBP scales rebuilding programs to serve communities in need. Homeowners benefit from a single point of contact throughout the process, ensuring clear and continuous communication.

SBP’s Opportunity Housing Program makes the dream of affordable homeownership a reality for low- to moderate-income families. We build high-quality homes for sale or rent at an affordable price, utilizing financial assistance from local government partners for down payments and closing costs. SBP’s Opportunity Housing program builds homes that are both energy-efficient and resilient to storms, empowering families to build home equity and save money.
