As Georgians across the state continue working to recover from Hurricane Helene’s devastating landfall, U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock, D-Ga., announced a comprehensive web resource to help Georgians navigate federal and state programs that are providing help to people and communities impacted by the storm.

The Hurricane Helene Resource Page (https://www.warnock.senate.gov/federal-disaster-recovery-assistance-for-georgians-impacted-by-hurricane-helene/), located on the senator’s official website, is updated regularly with new information and is designed to help Georgians get the help they need, from securing immediate necessities like food, water, healthcare and shelter to the latest guidance on how to report damages to their homes, businesses or farms, and spotting frauds and scams.

“My office and I have been on the ground and in frequent contact with communities in every corner of the state as recovery efforts continue, and this new web resource is one more step in our unending work to deliver all of the federal assistance needed to help Georgians come out stronger on the other side of this crisis,” said Warnock.

“Our work is just beginning to help families and communities rebuild, and while I’m pushing to make sure Washington is doing everything it can for our state, we’ll keep updating this web resource with the latest information to help connect Georgians with the assistance and support they need following Hurricane Helene’s devastation.”
