DR-4559-4570-LA / FS 010
FEMA Drive-Thru Disaster Recovery Centers (DRCs) are accessible mobile offices set up in
parishes affected by Hurricanes Laura and Delta. They are in convenient spots to allow safe
COVID-19 compliant interactions with FEMA staff. Masks or face coverings are required for
service. Survivors remain in their cars. A specialist wearing a mask will receive documents
through the car window and return them.

do the following:
▪ Apply for assistance.
▪ Learn the status of your FEMA application.
▪ Understand any letters you get from FEMA.
▪ Find housing and rental assistance information.
▪ Get answers to questions or resolve problems.
▪ Get referrals to agencies that may offer other assistance.
