Full Notification

The Texas Division of Emergency Management (TDEM) encourages any faith-based organization, house of worship, or nonprofit organization in Sonora and Sutton County that sustained damages during the July flooding event to contact local officials regarding potential eligibility for FEMA Public Assistance.
 
Under FEMA's Public Assistance Program and Policy Guide (PAPPG), certain private nonprofit organizations, including churches and other houses of worship, may be eligible for Public Assistance funding to help recover from disaster-related damages. Eligible organizations must generally be nonprofit entities that own or operate facilities providing services to the community and meet FEMA eligibility requirements. Houses of worship are recognized as eligible private nonprofit facilities and may qualify for assistance for eligible disaster-related damages and recovery work.
 
If your church, religious organization, or nonprofit facility experienced damage as a result of the July flood event, we encourage you to report those damages and request information regarding the Public Assistance program.
