*** FLOOD SURVIVOR INFORMATION ***

Wayne County is establishing a Long-Term Recovery Group to assist flood survivors. We are grateful that many have already been helped and received funding from one or more sources.

To determine how many residents still need assistance, volunteers will be calling 211 registrants on Friday, September 25th and the week of September 28th, between 9:00a.m. and 5:00 p.m.

We will be calling from 765-312-4699. Volunteers will identify themselves by name, and state that they are from the Long-Term Recovery Group. We will never ask flood survivors for bank account numbers, social security numbers, or other personal identifying information.

Please share this message broadly with anyone who has been impacted by the disaster and encourage them to “answer the call” to ensure everyone who has been impacted gets help.
