FEMA FLOOD-RELATED MEETINGS: Disaster Survivor Assistance meetings scheduled

Representatives from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) will be conducting local meetings in several locations throughout Wayne County this week to assist residents who experienced flooding as a result of the August 11 storm.

These meetings, known as Disaster Survivor Assistance (DSA), will allow flood victims to present questions and concerns to FEMA representatives regarding their eligibility for the Federal assistance that is available through the agency, as well as learn more about how the application process works. Residents do not need to make advance appointments to meet with the FEMA staff. 

Assistance is being offered on a “walk in” basis. However, registration for assistance can still be done via telephone at 1-800-621-3362 or via the web at www.disasterassistance.gov
