Survivors of the Jan. 12 severe storms, straight-line winds and tornadoes who live in Autauga, Coosa, Dallas, Elmore, Greene, Hale, Morgan, Mobile, Sumter and Tallapoosa counties and received initial rental assistance from FEMA may be eligible for continued rental assistance.

To be eligible to apply, survivors must meet the following conditions:

They were awarded initial rental assistance and used it as intended. The initial award covers two months.

They are unable to return to their pre-disaster residence because it is uninhabitable, cannot be accessed or is not available due to the Jan. 12 storms.

They cannot pay for housing without assistance. They are not receiving temporary housing help from any other source. They are developing a longer-term or permanent housing plan or can demonstrate progress toward one.

Survivors applying for continued assistance must complete an Application for Continued Temporary Housing Assistance. To request this form, call the FEMA Helpline at 800-621-3362.
