Hurricane Beryl Assistance and Response
The Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) is providing assistance to Texans affected by the severe storms, tornadoes, flooding and high winds that began April 26, 2024.
If you experienced storm related damage and seek assistance from FEMA, you may apply online or by phone at disasterassistance.gov/ or call the FEMA helpline at 800-621-3362 between 6 a.m. and 10 p.m. Help is available in most languages. If you use a relay service, such as video relay (VRS), captioned telephone or other service, give FEMA your number for that service.
For the latest information about Texas’ recovery, visit fema.gov/disaster/4781. Follow the FEMA Region 6 Twitter account at twitter.com/FEMARegion6 or on Facebook at facebook.com/FEMARegion6/
Texans who sustained damage caused by tropical weather are encouraged to report damage through the Individual State of Texas Assessment Tool (iSTAT).
For constituents who are on CenterPoint Energy, CenterPoint has relaunched its outage tracker. The online tool will provide constituents with information during storms and is designed to handle increased demand during such events.
