Page Content

​To assess the impact on our community and to get a clearer picture of the unmet needs that are impacting our residents, Alachua County residents can now submit a report of any significant unmet need that they may have as a direct result of Hurricane Helene.

Completing the Unmet Needs Form does not guarantee any type of assistance. Information will help us assess what services Alachua County may be eligible for or become eligible for. It will also allow us to assess what is still needed in our community. Those living outside of Alachua County should contact their local office of Emergency Management to report needs.

Residents of Alachua County who have sustained damage to their property or business should report this damage using the Damage Reporting Portal.

The form in this portal is for information purposes only and will be used when submitting county-wide damage assessments to the State of Florida and FEMA. When submitting damage reports, please submit photos as it will help with overall damage assessment, but do not put yourself in danger to get a photo.

Please complete the form to report storm or disaster-related damage to your home or business. Please provide as much detail as possible and include photos, if available. Reporting damage to residences and businesses is crucial for the recovery process.

Alachua County does not have any ability to assist with power outages. Local power providers manage all power outages.

Text the word ALACHUA to 888-777 to stay up-to-date with any new available resources.

For more information, contact Alachua County Emergency Management at 352-264-6500. ​​
