Our Disaster Recovery Section manages and coordinates presidential declared disaster programs including Public Assistance and Hazard Mitigation? When damages during an event exceed the predetermined per capita threshold, a Presidential Declaration results and activates federal disaster recovery programs.
The Public Assistance Program provides aid to state or local governments to pay part of the costs of repair or to rebuild a community's damaged public infrastructure, public buildings, and public parks to pre-disaster condition.
More than $2.4 billion in assistance has been distributed to local, tribal and state entities since 1993.
