The fair will take place from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturday, Feb. 22, at the Carver Village Community Center located at 905 Collat Ave, Savannah, GA 31415.

Survivors will meet with local housing organizations, property owners and landlords, as well as gain information on the HEARTS Georgia Sheltering Program, and U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) loans.

The Housing Resource Fair is an opportunity for survivors to:

moving into safe, sanitary and functioning housing,” he said. “We will walk them through their options to ensure they are aware of the resources that are available to fit their need,” says FEMA Federal Coordinating Officer Kevin Wallace.

Anyone who was affected by Tropical Storm Debby or Hurricane Helene, whether they have applied for FEMA assistance or not, is welcome to attend.
