As Eastern Kentucky continues the recovery process from the July 26 flooding, FEMA has announced additional critical needs assistance for displaced residents. This critical needs assistance is for those that have critical or immediate needs, like I said before, that were primarily displaced. Critical needs and immediate needs can include formula, food, water, gas for transportation. It could also be for prescriptions, medical supplies, something that they need right now. Critical needs assistance is a one-time $500 payment per household and is available to residents in Brethit, Clay, Floyd, Knot, Leslie, Letcher, McGoffin, Martin, Owsley, Perry, Pike and Whitley Counties. So the ways that survivors can be eligible for critical needs assistance is by completing a FEMA registration. They also need to pass a identity verification. They need to let FEMA know that they have critical and immediate needs and that they need financial assistance to help with their expenses and needs. To apply for critical needs assistance and to register for FEMA assistance, call 800-621-3362 or visit FEMA.gov. For Mountain Top News, I'm Brianna Robinson.
