FEMA and the Indiana Department of Homeland Security will begin rapid intake for all Lake County residents who experienced home damage and whose homes were uninsured or underinsured, beginning Friday, August 28. Intake center staff can help you start your FEMA application, check your application status, and get answers to your questions. Walk-ins are welcome — no appointment necessary.
Intake centers will operate daily August 28 through September 5 at rotating locations in Crown Point, Hobart, Gary, and Munster.
Visit the Storm Info Hub for the full schedule of dates, times, and locations, what to bring, and other storm recovery resources.
You can also apply online 24/7 at DisasterAssistance.gov or call FEMA at 1-800-621-3362 (TTY: 711). FEMA assistance is available regardless of citizenship status.
Lost food in the storm? Hoosiers who already receive SNAP benefits can apply to have benefits replaced through August 31, 2026 — details on the Storm Info Hub.
