Helena, Mont.– State and federal disaster officials today announce
that additional aid is available in response to the severe flooding
currently impacting the state. Residents of Carbon, Park and
Stillwater counties may now register with FEMA for assistance if they
had damage caused by the flooding. This is in addition to the
assistance that was previously made available to reimburse eligible
communities for damaged public infrastructure and emergency response
costs.

To help individuals and households impacted by the flooding, FEMA has
programs that provide financial help with temporary housing expenses,
basic home repairs and other essential disaster-related needs. FEMA
may also make referrals to other local, state, federal and voluntary
assistance programs.

First, if you haven’t already done so, contact your insurance
company and file a claim for the disaster-caused damage. You don’t
have to wait to start cleaning up but be sure to take photographs or
video of the damage and keep all receipts for repair work.

If you have uninsured or underinsured losses, apply for assistance
with FEMA. You can do so in several ways:

 	* Visit DisasterAssistance.gov and click on “Apply Online”
 	* Call 800-621-3362 (800-462-7585 TTY). Multilingual operators are
available. The toll-free numbers are open every day from 5 a.m. to 9
p.m. MST. If you use a relay service, such as video relay service
(VRS), captioned phone, or others, give FEMA the number for that
service.
 	* Download the FEMA App for smartphones or mobile devices
 	* Information about how to apply for low-interest U.S. Small
Business Administration disaster loans for businesses and residents is

SBA offers federal low-interest disaster loans to homeowners, renters,
businesses of all sizes, and most private nonprofit organizations.
In addition to financial aid from FEMA or the SBA, by applying you may
be referred to additional federal, state and local disaster aid
programs or assistance from voluntary agencies.

(pre-disaster address)
 	* Current mailing address
 	* Current telephone number
 	* Insurance information
 	* Total household annual income
 	* Social Security Number
