FEMA’s Home Key initiative helps provide rapid and various strategies for finding immediate housing for survivors of Hurricane Helene who have been displaced from their primary residence since the storm.
FEMA will review a person’s case to establish such a need for housing and if eligible and after signing some documentation and release forms, FEMA can refer shelter programs, help secure Rental Assistance, or refer to other FEMA-affiliated branches.
Calls from FEMA may come from unfamiliar area codes or phone numbers. FEMA urges that victims of the storm answer the call, as there may be a new status update regarding themselves and the Home Key initiative.
FEMA urges victims to also be aware of scammer calls; if you are uncertain of the validity of a call, hang up and call the FEMA Helpline at 800-621-3362.
