ST. CLAIR COUNTY, Ill. – Renters and homeowners in Illinois who were affected by the July floods have until Thursday, December 22, to submit a FEMA disaster aid application.
Illinois residents may apply for help either online at DisasterAssistance.gov, the FEMA mobile app, or the FEMA helpline at 800-621-3362. You can also apply in-person at two Disaster Recovery Centers.
The Clyde Jordan Senior Citizen Center is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and Saturdays from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. The Caseyville Village Hall is also open Monday through Saturday, 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 a.m. Walk-ins are available.
