Full Notification

Alachua County residents and business owners impacted from Hurricane Helene are now eligible for financial assistance from the FEMA Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA).
 

If you or someone you know experienced a financial loss or home damage as a direct result of Hurricane Helene, please visit the FEMA disaster assistance page at https://www.disasterassistance.gov/ or call 1-800-621-3362. Multilingual operators are available for those that call.
 

For businesses that need assistance, visit the SBA page at https://lending.sba.gov/. The SBA provides low-interest loans to both businesses and individuals who have been impacted by Hurricane Helene. These low interest loans are helpful to reduce the immediate financial burden of repairs and other expenses not covered by insurance.
 

PLEASE NOTE: All financial assistance and programs are provided by the Federal Government through various organizations. Alachua County Government or the municipalities of Alachua County do not have the ability to approve or deny any assistance from FEMA or the SBA nor do we have the ability to check the status of your assistance application. All inquires about assistance must go through FEMA or the SBA.
