FEMA assistance is limited to basic needs. It will not restore all
property lost due to the Hurricane Debby. Insurance coverage is the
best way to recover after a disaster. However, FEMA assistance for
personal property may be available if you are uninsured or
underinsured.

TYPES OF ASSISTANCE

	* APPLIANCES: Includes standard household appliances, such as a
refrigerator, washing machine, etc.
	* CLOTHING: Essential clothing needed due to loss, damage or
contamination.
	* HOME FURNISHINGS: Basic furnishings found in a bedroom, kitchen,
bathroom and living room.
	* TOOLS REQUIRED FOR WORK AND SCHOOL: Tools and equipment required
for your job and items required for education purposes. This
assistance also applies to self-employed individuals.
	* COMPUTING DEVICES: This includes one personal or family computer.
You may be eligible for funds for additional computers required for
work or school that were damaged by the disaster.
	* ACCESSIBLE ITEMS: FEMA provides assistance for damaged personal
property required for eligible applicants with disabilities. 

ELIGIBILITY CONDITIONS

	* Items must have been owned prior to Hurricane Debby and been
damaged by the storm. 

	* Items were owned and being used by occupants of the household.

	* FEMA does not provide assistance for furnishings and/or appliances
provided by a landlord.
	* Items used by guests and relatives who were not members of the
pre-disaster household are not eligible for assistance.

	* FEMA may not repair or replace a storm-damaged item if you own a
similar item that works.
