Mobile Disaster Centers Set Up In Pike County
KENTUCKY....
Mobile Disaster Recovery Centers have been set up to provide one-on-one information about federal and state disaster assistance for Pike County residents who suffered damages during the July flooding. The centers are located adjacent to the Community Trust Bank in Marrowbone, and the Community Funeral Home in Pikeville. They will be staffed by Kentucky Division of Emergency Management, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), personnel from 8:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M. Monday through Saturday. At the centers, disaster recovery specialists can check an individual’s application status, answer questions, or review information needed to process their application. Recovery specialists also can supply contacts for other state, federal and voluntary agency programs that may be able to help. Individuals are encouraged to register on line at www.DisasterAssistance.gov or by calling toll-free 1-800-621-FEMA (3362). Applicants with hearing or speech disabilities can call TTY 800-462-7585.
