Disaster Relief Grants are Available in a Variety of Forms

If you live in an area that has recently been struck with disaster or is prone to repeated emergency situations, you may be interested in disaster relief grants. Disaster relief grants are available through the federal and state government, as well as public or private foundations and groups, to individuals and especially communities that have experienced disasters. Disaster relief grants are available in a variety of forms, so each individual, community, and business, should be sure to research which form would be most applicable to them.

- Disaster or emergency relief grants: Emergency relief grants are available after a natural disaster or other emergency situation has occurred. Most emergency relief grants are available through organizations and foundations that will help provide the basic necessities. These necessities include water, food, shelter, etc., and may be available quicker than groups such as FEMA. FEMA for example, is available to give aide after the federal government has declared the community a disaster area. Once the area is determined a disaster, the federal government supplies FEMA with disaster relief grants. Emergency relief grants are available to help community members rebuild the community. While each grant may vary, some will provide funding for home repairs, uninsured losses, medical and mental counseling, and other tragedy related expenditures.

- Community recovery grants: These grants are necessary to help communities begin to rebuild affected areas after disaster and have access to money to begin the recovery process. Community recovery grants are utilized by Housing and Urban Development (HUD). They have grants available for states, cities, and towns to recover from Presidentially declared disasters. Without the aid of HUD, many of these areas would not be able to recover.

- Disaster preparedness grants: If you live in an area that is prone to repeated disasters or emergency situations, this kind of grant will be of the most value to you. This kind of grant helps to create and prepare communities with emergency plans for future disastrous events. Most of these plans outline where the community will receive help from, as well as making sure that they will have access to emergency response systems, personnel and equipment. A majority of these disaster preparedness grants are available through FEMA, along with some local groups and foundations.

Disaster and emergency relief grants are available to those in need, and those who may need the assistance in the future. It is important for the individual applying to know all of the proper information of the damage caused to them or their community because of a disaster. Many disaster relief grants have a limited time period with strict regulations, so it is important to apply as quickly after a disaster as possible.
