Oregon Wildfire Resources
Last week, President Donald Trump granted a major disaster declaration in Oregon due to disastrous wildfires following Governor Kate Brown’s request for help. The declaration activates FEMA’s assistance programs in affected counties. Federal funds are available to help eligible individuals in Clackamas, Douglas, Jackson, Klamath, Lane, Lincoln, Linn and Marion Counties.
Those who are impacted can apply at DisasterAssistance.gov or by calling 1-800-621-3362 (TTY: 1-800-462-7585). Those who qualify are encouraged to apply as soon as possible.
