All declarations on record

Individual Assistance to households

FEMA Individual Assistance to households across Connecticut, combined across the Housing Assistance owner and renter programs. Valid registrations are households that applied within a designated Individual Assistance area; approved figures are those FEMA found eligible under the Individuals and Households Program. Self-reported, drawn from NEMIS through OpenFEMA, and present only where Individual Assistance was designated.

Hazard mitigation funded

Federal Hazard Mitigation Assistance obligated across Connecticut to reduce future disaster losses, by program. Figures are federal share obligated, reported through OpenFEMA and not audited.

Denied requests

FEMA turned down 5 declaration requests from Connecticut since FY2000, a declaration-request denial rate of 14.3%. This is the President denying a governor or tribal leader's request for a declaration, tracked in a separate FEMA dataset from approved declarations, and is not the same thing as an individual being denied assistance under an approved declaration.
