FEMA Displacement Assistance may help homeowners and renters who can't return to their home because it was damaged by Hurricane Helene. After receiving Displacement Assistance, applicants may be eligible to receive Rental Assistance.
Rental Assistance can help owners and renters pay for somewhere to live while repairs are being made or permanent housing is identified.
The initial award for Rental Assistance may cover up to two months of rent. After the initial award, applicants can request Continued Rental Assistance.
