Dodge County, including all municipalities, was approved today for FEMA’s Individual Assistance Program, which unlocks federal disaster relief for individuals, families, and small businesses. Residents of Dodge County, including the City of Eastman, may now apply for disaster assistance from FEMA by visiting www.DisasterAssistance.gov or calling 1-800-621-3362. Please see the attached images for further details on how the program works, how to apply, and what happens after you apply (see pages 2-3). This program also assists those with small businesses (see pages 3-4) and administrative disaster tax relief to taxpayers (see page 4).
PLEASE NOTE: All funding amounts are determined by FEMA. The City of Eastman does not weigh in on this, as this is Federal funding from a Federal program.
