LOUISIANA — help is here!

FEMA Federal Emergency Management Agency Disaster Survivor Assistance Teams are going door-to-door starting in Ascension, Assumption, St. Mary & Terrebonne parishes to assist residents affected by #Francine.

The FEMA teams can help Louisiana residents in several ways including:

Checking the status of an application already in the system and making minor changes to applications.

Providing registration assistance.

Identifying organizations providing disaster-related services and/or resources to the public for immediate and long-term recovery.

Gathering situational awareness about impacts to communities.

Providing civil rights and disability integration assistance information to ensure equal access.

These teams are easily recognizable by their official photo identification (ID). If you meet people offering assistance, first ask to see their ID before giving them your personal information.
