Program Description

FEMA Disaster Recovery Centers (DRCs) are accessible facilities and mobile offices set up after a disaster. We place DRCs in or near affected communities, in an area that offers equal access and resources to everyone.

You may visit a DRC to –

Learn about disaster assistance programs.
Apply for disaster assistance.
Check the status of your FEMA application.
Help you understand FEMA notices or letters.
Find housing and rental assistance information.
Get referrals to agencies that offer other assistance.
Meet with a Small Business Administration (SBA) agent.

The DRC Locator can help you find the locations, hours, and services of DRCs near you.
