After a disaster, you can apply for help from the federal government. You may be able to receive funds for uninsured or under-insured disaster-caused expenses and serious needs, such as repair or replacement of personal property and vehicles, or funds for moving and storage.

To apply, follow FEMA’s guidance:

• Step One: Take photos of your damaged home and belongings.

• Step Two: Make a list of damaged/lost items.

• Step Three: If you have insurance, you must file a claim with your insurance company. If you do not have insurance, continue to Step Four.

• Step Four: Go to DisasterAssistance.gov or your local Disaster Recovery Center now that you are ready to apply for disaster assistance or if you would like more information on available assistance.
