The Disaster Recovery Center in St. Clair County, located at the Clyde Jordan Senior Citizen Center, 6755 State St. in East St. Louis, will be closing permanently one day early due to inclement weather.
The Disaster Recovery Center will close permanently today at 6 p.m.
Homeowners and renters can still apply for FEMA assistance for one more day. Tomorrow, December 22, is the last day to apply for FEMA disaster assistance for homeowners and renters in St. Clair County. If you had property damage or losses caused by the July 25-28 severe storms and flooding, or if you had to relocate because your apartment complex was damaged, you may be eligible for federal disaster assistance.
There are still several ways you can apply for FEMA disaster assistance before the deadline.
- Apply online at DisasterAssistance.gov

- Call the FEMA Helpline at 800-621-3362 to apply

- If you use a relay service, such as video relay (VRS), captioned telephone or other service, give FEMA the number for that service. The Helpline is open seven days a week, 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. Press 2 for Spanish or 3 for an interpreter who speaks your language.
