“HUD is an important partner in the North Carolina recovery process. Providing housing for those whose homes were flooded is vital to getting survivors and communities back on their feet.” –Libby Turner, federal coordinating officer for Hurricane Matthew disaster response and recovery.Here are some disaster-related services provided by U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development:• Assistance may be available if you lived in public housing, a Section 8 unit, or have a Housing Choice Voucher. Contact the housing provider that assisted you before the disaster and reach out to HUD at (336) 851-8058 or email at hudhelpingu@hud.gov.• Homeowner information and assistance regarding foreclosure or questions about next steps with your home. Contact a HUD approved housing counseling agency by calling 800-569-4287. You do not have to have a Federal Housing Administration loan to meet with one of these agencies and there is never a fee for foreclosure prevention counseling. | FEMA Federal Emergency Management Agency
