Disaster Survivor Assistance (DSA) teams from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) are going door-to-door, canvassing neighborhoods in Bristol and Worcester counties to help those affected by the Sept. 11-13, 2023 storms and flooding to apply for disaster assistance. DSA teams can also help survivors update their information if they’ve already applied and to assist with referrals to voluntary agency partners.

While many may have already reported their damages to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, local government, community organization or even spoken to someone from FEMA, this does not mean they have applied for federal assistance with FEMA.
