Transition to RHC from GOSR
In October 2022, Governor Kathy Hochul announced the creation of the permanent Office of Resilient Homes and Communities (RHC), which assumed the Governor’s Office of Storm Recovery’s (GOSR) portfolio. GOSR was established as a temporary agency in 2013 to coordinate statewide recovery efforts for Superstorm Sandy, Hurricane Irene, and Tropical Storm Lee. More recently, the agency is also coordinating recovery and resiliency efforts for Hurricane Ida.
