If you sustained loss from the severe storms, straight-line winds, tornadoes, landslides and mudslides that occurred on April 2, and you live in Boyd, Carter, Fayette, Greenup, Henry, Jefferson, Jessamine, Mason, Oldham, Union and Whitley counties, don’t hesitate to apply for FEMA assistance.

It is now easier for survivors of the April 2 severe storms who live in designated Kentucky counties to apply for FEMA assistance and a disaster loan from the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) at the same time.

FEMA may be able to provide financial assistance to help survivors whose vehicles were damaged as a result of the severe storms, straight-line winds, tornadoes, landslides and mudslides that occurred on April 2.
