If you’ve been impacted by recent storms, Community Organizations Active in a Disaster(COAD) may be able to help. Residents can now apply for disaster assistance from local resources through the COAD Disaster Assistance Application, which offers access to potential financial and home repair support.

Assistance is prioritized for households meeting certain criteria, including those that are:
✅ Displaced homeowners and renters
✅ Low income according to HUD standards (80% of the area median income), e.g., up to $45,050 for a one-person household or $51,540 for a two-person household
✅ Head of household aged 60+ home to individuals with disabling conditions

Home repair assistance depends on property ownership, tax status, and the severity of the damage to your home. If you believe you meet these income criteria and have unmet needs from the recent hurricanes, visit www.tinyurl.com/COADAssistanceSurvey

Don’t forget to apply for FEMA assistance first either:
🌐 Online at www.DisasterAssistance.gov
📞 Call 800.621.3362 (7 a.m.–10 p.m. EST)
🏢 FEMA Disaster Recovery Center at Tringali Park Community Center, 3460 N. Access Road, Englewood, open daily 7 a.m.–7 p.m.
