(WXMI) — The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) released its recovery update after making its way through areas impacted by severe storms and flooding last August.

FEMA says more than $3.2 million have been approved to support 947 homes in Michigan. This comes after more than 2,140 homes were inspected.

Qualified households have until April 8 to apply for disaster assistance. We’re told homeowners who have already made repairs are still eligible.

To apply for assistance, call FEMA at 800-621-3362 or visit DisasterAssistance.gov. Alternatively, download the FEMA app.
