One year after the 2016 August flood many families are still struggling to get back home. Delay’s with the response from the federal government has left many with only a few months in their FEMA trailers left until the deadline. There has been no official answer if these families will be forced from their temporary housing, some of them including JD Pence, wasn’t given his trailer until February of this year. Please watch his story all the way to the end, he more than deserves to be heard.
This comes directly from an email I received and I wanted to get the word out to all residents of Ascension Parish and surrounding areas.
The Restore Louisiana Homeowner Assistance Program strongly urges all flood-affected homeowners to complete the initial homeowner assistance survey. The survey takes about 15 minutes and may be completed online at http://restore.la.gov or over the phone by calling (866) 735-2001 from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday.
The program recognizes that some homeowners may need help completing this survey and has scheduled six outreach events to ensure that those who need assistance can receive it.
These events will be held as follows:
May 16 – 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Southeastern Louisiana University – Student Union 500 W University Ave., Hammond, LA 70402
May 17 – 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Ascension Parish Library – Gonzales 708 S Irma Ave., Gonzales, LA 70737
May 18 – 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.

The purpose of these events is to help homeowners complete the survey and answer any questions about the program. No formal presentation will be provided, but program information and materials will be available. While no documentation is required, we do ask that you bring your FEMA ID number if you have one.
For all updates, go to restore.la.gov
To be eligible for one of the six phases of the program, homeowners must meet all of the eligibility criteria listed below:

• The damaged address must have been the homeowner’s primary residence at the time of the disaster event
• The damage suffered must be a result of the March or August 2016 severe storms and flooding events

• The structure must be located in one of 51 disaster-declared parishes
COMPLETING THE SURVEY DOES NOT REQUIRE THE HOMEOWNER TO STOP WORK.
