- Historic Home Preservation Assistance Provided Through FEMA and the Virginia Department of Historic Resources
- MIDLOTHIAN, Va. -- An awe-inspiring benefit of living in the Commonwealth of Virginia is that a simple stroll will often become a full embrace with the Commonwealth's heritage. History flows from irreplaceable homes and buildings that fill city streets and dot the countryside. Many of these historic structures suffered damage during the Virginia earthquake and private owners of these homes and buildings should register with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
- Aid to Local Governments Helping Rebuild Pennsylvania Communities
- HARRISBURG, Pa. -- When disaster strikes, the first response is to ensure personal and family safety, and then address the loss of property and possessions. There is a federal disaster program - Individual Assistance (IA) - that responds to these urgent needs of individuals and business owners.
