Rock Hill, S.C. is set to open a new disaster recovery center on Thursday, October 31, to assist residents affected by Hurricane Helene. The center aims to provide a comprehensive support system where individuals can meet with representatives from FEMA and apply for federal assistance. This one-stop location will also offer referrals for other local support services, making it easier for residents to access the help they need.
The disaster recovery center will be located at the York County Library, situated at 138 E. Black Street in Rock Hill. The center will operate during the following hours:
Residents from several counties in South Carolina, including Abbeville, Aiken, Allendale, Anderson, Bamberg, Barnwell, Beaufort, Cherokee, Chester, Edgefield, Fairfield, Greenville, Greenwood, Hampton, Jasper, Kershaw, Laurens, Lexington, McCormick, Newberry, Oconee, Orangeburg, Pickens, Richland, Saluda, Spartanburg, Union, and the Catawba Indian Nation, are eligible to receive federal assistance for recovery from Hurricane Helene.
The opening of this recovery center is a significant step towards helping the community rebuild after the storm’s impact. By providing direct access to FEMA assistance, the center aims to streamline the recovery process for individuals who have faced property damage, displacement, or other challenges due to the hurricane.
For those unable to visit the Rock Hill center, there are additional disaster recovery centers available across South Carolina.
