Emergency Plan Wants to Rebuild 7,4 Thousand Houses Through My House, My Life in Areas Affected by Disasters
In light of the recent disasters in Rio Grande do Sul, the federal government announced a construction plan that foresees the delivery of more than 7 thousand housing units within 10 months, with incentives for builders and coordination among different levels of government.
Federal Incentive Prioritizes Rapid Construction in Rio Grande do Sul
In response to the floods and landslides that devastated various regions of Rio Grande do Sul, the federal government launched an emergency plan within the My House, My Life program to enable the construction of homes in record time. The goal, according to the Ministry of Cities, is to deliver about 7,4 thousand new housing units within 10 months. The houses will be built in specific neighborhoods of the program, prioritizing families who lost their homes due to the disasters.
This measure is part of a task force involving federal, state, and municipal governments, focusing on the housing and social recovery of the affected areas. As reported by Agência Brasil, the Minister of Cities, Jader Filho, stated that the urgency in execution is directly linked to the humanitarian situation of the homeless.

Construction with Incentives and Integration Among Public Bodies
To accelerate the construction of the units, the federal government will provide financial incentives to builders who join the project. The idea is to ensure speed without compromising the quality of the works. Additionally, the coordination with states and municipalities includes actions such as land regularization, release of lots, and installation of basic infrastructure – such as water, electricity, and sanitation.
According to G1, the release of funds also considers the degree of emergency of each locality, prioritizing municipalities that declared a state of public calamity and have already assessed the housing damages.
RS Will Have Priority in Housing Projects of My House, My Life
The state of Rio Grande do Sul will become a national priority within the My House, My Life program throughout 2025. The objective is that the construction of new homes also serves as a vector for social and economic development for the region, generating jobs and promoting the resumption of community life in the affected neighborhoods.
The Ministry of Cities reinforces that the properties will be allocated to families with an income of up to R$ 2,640, included in Band 1 of the housing program, which concentrates the largest number of beneficiaries. The Caixa Econômica Federal will be responsible for the technical oversight of the execution of the works.
