"Yes, several programs and services can provide immediate coverage (like tarps) or financial assistance for damaged roofs. For immediate protection, contact specialized contractors for emergency roof tarp and board-up services.

Doesn't your homeowner's insurance cover that? Do you not have insurance?

Are you on any other type of assistance, like SSDI or Medicaid?

If you’re uninsured, you can still look into:

FEMA
If the storm is federally declared
May provide grants (not loans)

American Red Cross
Emergency shelter, temporary assistance

Local:
County emergency management
Churches / nonprofits
Community aid funds
