WHAT ASSISTANCE MAY BE AVAILABLE

Support for your recovery

FEMA Individual Assistance grants may help homeowners and renters with these disaster-related needs:

  • Essential home repairs

    Repairs to owner-occupied primary homes, including structural parts and interior areas.

  • Replacement of personal property

    Help replacing work tools, household items, appliances, disability equipment and vehicles.

  • Other disaster-related needs

    Expenses not covered by insurance, such as medical, dental, moving, child-care, funeral and transportation costs.

IMPORTANT REMINDER

Reported Damage in July? You Still Need to Apply

Reporting damage to the Guam Recovery Office, or receiving a damage-assessment site visit in July, was not a FEMA application. Residents who reported damage must still apply with FEMA by the deadline.
