ANCHORAGE, Alaska – Under the direction of United States Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem, FEMA has obligated over $3 million in emergency housing funds to support Alaskans displaced by severe storms, flooding and remnants of Typhoon Halong October 8-13, 2025.

The assistance, provided under FEMA’s Public Assistance program, includes $2,971,062 for non-congregate sheltering. Non-congregate sheltering allows displaced survivors to stay in hotel rooms. This form of sheltering offers privacy for survivors as they work toward their long-term recovery. The assistance also includes $410,565 for congregate – or group – sheltering.

Local and Tribal governments, as well as certain private non-profits that sustained damage to infrastructure because of the Alaska West Coast storms may still receive financial assistance from FEMA. The deadline to submit a request for Public Assistance is December 21, 2025.

Public Assistance helps tribal, territorial, and local governments cover costs for debris removal, life-saving emergency protective measures, and restoring public infrastructure. To learn more, visit FEMA’s website at www.fema.gov/public-assistance-local-state-tribal-and-non-profit.

It should be noted that Public Assistance is not available for individuals, but that Individual Assistance is for individuals and families for their personal damages. You may register for FEMA Individual Assistance by calling the dedicated Alaska Call Center at 1-866-342-1699, going online, or by using the FEMA app. The deadline to apply for Individual Assistance is December 22, 2025.
