Release Date:
September 20, 2024
Vermonters affected by severe storm, flooding, landslides and mudslides from July 9-11, 2024, have until October 21, 2024 to apply for FEMA assistance.
This October 21 deadline is for residents of Addison, Caledonia, Chittenden, Essex, Lamoille, Orleans, and Washington counties.
If you were affected by the severe weather, you should apply as soon as possible. FEMA may be able to help with temporary housing, home repairs, privately-owned roads and bridges, and other disaster-related needs – and the faster you apply, the sooner you can get aid.
There are four ways to apply:
- Go online to DisasterAssistance.gov.
- Call the FEMA Helpline at 800-621-3362.
- Download the FEMA’s Mobile App.
- Visit a Disaster Recovery Center. For location and hours, visit fema.gov/drc.
