Great news!
FEMA's Mobile Disaster Recovery Center will be returning to Memorial Park May 2 - May 9, 2026, to help Lewis County Residents apply for Individual Assistance. They will be available Monday-Saturday 7am-7pm, and Sunday 1pm-5pm.
Before an Applicant starts a FEMA application, they should be prepared to provide:
Contact information: Provide the address of the property where the damage occurred and the address, phone number, and valid email address of where FEMA representatives can reach you.
A Social Security Number
Damage Information: Describe the damage caused by the disaster. Include the type of disaster, and the type of home or vehicle.
Financial information: Provide your total annual household income, before taxes.
Insurance information: Describe the type(s) of insurance converge you have. This could include homeowners, flood, automobile, or mobile home insurance.
Important Reminder for Applicants
After applying for assistance, survivors may receive phone calls from FEMA from an unknown or unfamiliar number. It is important to answer these calls, as FEMA may need to speak with applicants to continue processing their case. In some situations, an application may be delayed or initially denied if FEMA is unable to reach the applicant. Survivors should also remember that FEMA will never ask for payment. FEMA representatives will identify a case using the registration number assigned to the survivor’s application.
Tennessee winter storm survivors can also apply for FEMA assistance online at disasterassistance.gov, by calling 800-621-FEMA, or by using the FEMA mobile app.
