Resources and Assistance for Disaster Survivors


Disaster survivors who need assistance following a presidentially declared disaster that has been designated for individual assistance can now go to DisasterAssistance.gov to register online.

DisasterAssistance.gov is a user-friendly Web portal that consolidates information about assistance available from multiple government agencies in one place, making it easer for survivors to research and apply for disaster assistance. As a community information and technology resource, libraries can help increase awareness of and provide access to the DisasterAssistance.gov Web portal. By raising awareness of the valuable resources available, providing access and encouraging survivors to access the portal, the Minnesota Library Association is joining the effort in making it easier for disaster survivors to learn about and apply for the aid they need following a disaster.
