If your home was severely damaged or destroyed in the recent wildfires and you need a safe place to live, FEMA may be able to help.
We have a program that provides survivors with a safe, temporary place to stay – like a hotel or motel, until you can find a longer-term housing solution. We pay hotels directly and cover the room, taxes, and pet fees.
To find out if you are eligible, you’ll first need to apply for FEMA assistance. You can do that by calling us at 800-621-3362 or by visiting Disaster Assistance dot gov. Be sure to apply by March 10th.
We’ll contact you directly if you’re eligible for this program. Our goal is to provide shelter until you find a place to rent. And our help doesn’t end there. We’ll stay in close contact with you and help cover rental fees for up to 18 months.
