In response to the devastating storms, tornadoes, and flooding that impacted Arkansas between March 14–15 and April 2–22, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has announced the opening of four new Survivor Assistance Sites, along with extended operations at several existing locations. These centers will offer face-to-face support for residents seeking help with disaster recovery.
The newly added and extended sites will provide vital resources, including help with FEMA applications, updates on existing cases, and access to other recovery assistance. Hours and dates of operation vary by location.
New and Extended Assistance Sites Include:
Sharp County
Hardy Fire Station, Hardy
June 5–6, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
June 7, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
FEMA urges impacted residents to visit the site nearest them to receive in-person help. A full list of locations and dates is available at fema.gov/disaster/4865 or fema.gov/disaster/4873 — scroll to the bottom of the page and click on “In-person Survivor Assistance.”
FEMA reminds Arkansans that disaster recovery assistance is available to everyone, regardless of background, income, or language. Multilingual support is available, and accommodations can be made for individuals with disabilities or those using relay services.
