FEMA Disaster Recovery Center is now located at 146 Maple Street, Westfield, PA, across from the Westfield Library. FEMA reps are only supposed to be in our area until November 12, 2024.
If FEMA funds do not cover your losses, you may want to speak with someone from the US Small Business Administration (SBA). Reps are available at the Crary Hose Fire Company in Westfield. The below PDFs provide information that may provide help and clarification.
HOMEOWNERS — These loans are NOT just for businesses. Speak to a SBA rep to discuss your loan options. SBA has left the Westfield area, but they still may be in the county. If not, check SBA online.

Other tips:
Keep an inventory of damage, preferably saved in a waterproof safe or lock box — update list when necessary; some damages may not be found for many days, weeks, or even years. Save photos of damage — preferably before and after pictures. Keep all receipts of items purchased (materials, supplies, replacement of damaged items, repair costs, etc.) and number of people who helped you during the flood and clean-up.
Contact your insurance company — even if your claim is denied, PEMA and FEMA want to know (many of us do not have flood insurance to cover damages).
