As a renter, what types of FEMA assistance could I be eligible for?

Financial assistance for pre-disaster renters may cover reimbursement for short-term lodging expenses, funds to rent temporary housing, funds to replace or repair necessary personal property, a vehicle; uninsured funeral, medical, dental, childcare, moving and storage expenses. Uninsured medical and dental expenses may include lost or damaged medical equipment or disaster-caused injuries.

If Direct Housing Assistance is authorized for the disaster, you may be eligible for Direct Temporary Housing Assistance if you are unable to use financial assistance to secure temporary housing and you have no other housing options available to you.
