The centers will open on Friday, May 30, and will remain open from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Staff at the centers can help survivors apply for federal assistance, the news release added. They can also identify potential needs and connect survivors with local, state and federal agencies, as well as nonprofits and community groups.
Survivors with homeowners or renters insurance should first file a claim with their insurance company as soon as possible. If your policy does not cover all your damage expenses, you may then be eligible for federal assistance.
