Less than a week remains to apply for federal disaster assistance for Minnesota homeowners and renters affected by severe storms and flooding this June and July.
Applications must be submitted by Sunday, Oct. 27.
The assistance may include funds for temporary housing, to support the repair or replacement of your home and funds for disaster-caused expenses and serious needs.
These can include the repair or replacement of property and vehicles, funds for moving and storage, medical, dental, child care and other miscellaneous items.
Individuals in a Minnesota county designated for FEMA individual assistance may apply by going online to DisasterAssistance.gov, use the FEMA mobile app, or by calling the helpline at 800-621-3362.
