But in some of the poorest areas, the prospects for recovery are less obvious.
Anna Firstley’s house is unsafe, but she’s angrier that she wasn’t allowed to see what was left of it for three months.
Even worse, says Doreen Keeler, another survivor of the heavy storm, is that 100 days after the disaster, many who lost homes are still not getting the help they need.

U.S. lawmakers investigating what went wrong before, during, and after the heavy storm, heard one frustrating story after another from survivors who say the federal government forgot about the citizens of New Orleans.
