HAWAII - FEMA has approved $5.7 million in funding to support state-managed recovery programs as a result of the 2023 Hawaii wildfires. These funds directly support individuals, families and communities by addressing some of their most urgent needs after a disaster.
The funds were awarded to the state to help 1,718 impacted residents develop a long-term recovery plan and coordinate support with a case manager through FEMA's Disaster Case Management program. A case manager empowers households to return to a state of independence.
FEMA will continue to work closely with the state of Hawaii to support individuals and communities throughout the state-led recovery efforts.
