International Business Times reports that Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Secretary Shaun Donovan says there are 1,000 foreclosed homes in Alabama that could be available to house people left homeless by the April 29 tornadoes.   Although the government does not have an exact number of how many people are without housing, the article points out that its path through Tuscaloosa, Alabama, damaged or destroyed 5,700 homes and buildings, and affected approximately 13,700 people.   Secretary Donovan says some people may be housed in manufactured housing in rural areas or in rental homes and apartments.  So far $24 million has been made available for recovery efforts in Alabama.  Read the Industry Voices Guest Blog entitled Manufactured Homes Could Be Part of Post-Tornado Solution in Georgia to learn an Industry initiative to meet such needs.
