That assistance is also available to Hurricane victims in Franklin and Wakulla Counties.
FEMA may be able to help with serious needs, displacement, temporary lodging, basic home repair costs, essential personal property loss or other disaster-caused needs.

You can also apply using the FEMA mobile app or by calling FEMA’s helpline toll-free at 800-621-3362.
