FEMA in late January announced plans to continue rental assistance for survivors of Hurricanes Helene and Milton who are eligible for the program.
People still recovery from the 2024 storms might be eligible if they:
- Received rental assistance and can show they used the money to pay for temporary housing;
- Can’t return to their home because it is not safe to live in or is no longer available;
- Can’t afford to pay for temporary housing and aren’t receiving help from other housing programs or voluntary agencies;
- Established a permanent housing plan and continue to show they are working toward meeting their goal.
To apply, people must complete an application for continued temporary housing assistance.
To request the form, call the FEMA Helpline at 800-621-3362.
