Hope this helps some of you.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency said Thursday it will cover hotel expenses for survivors of Hurricane Ida with damaged homes or dwellings in 25 parishes in southeast Louisiana.

The program, known as Transitional Sheltering Assistance, will provide survivors with short term housing free-of-charge as they recover from the Category 4 storm.

If you haven't done so already, you must first register with FEMA at disasterassistance.gov or by calling the FEMA helpline at 800-621-3362.

Those wishing to take advantage of the program must find and book their own hotel rooms. Participating hotels are listed at www.femaevachotels.com.

Residents who have been moved to a state-operated shelter following Hurricane Ida are eligible for the program. That includes more than 3,000 survivors across 31 shelters statewide.

You may also qualify if you've been displaced by the storm and are living in a car, hotel or motel, tent, mass shelter or your place of employment.
