On Friday, May 10th, President Barack Obama declared Illinois as a disaster area due to severe storms, winds, and flooding between April 16 and May 5, 2013. Residents of Cook County may now apply for disaster assistance through FEMA up until 60 days after the declaration. You will receive an answer very shortly if you qualify for assistance. Disaster assistance is financial or direct assistance to individuals and families whose property has been damaged or destroyed as a result of a federally-declared disaster, and whose losses are not covered by insurance.
