ANCHORAGE, Alaska - FEMA has approved $196,081 in funding to support state-managed recovery programs as a result of severe storms, flooding and remnants of Typhoon Halong during the period of Oct. 8-13, 2025. These funds directly support individuals, families and communities by addressing some of their most urgent needs after a disaster.
Specifically, the funding is for Disaster Unemployment Assistance, which may help people who are not able to work as a direct result of the disaster. This assistance is funded by FEMA and administered by the state of Alaska. FEMA will continue to work closely with Alaska to support individuals and communities throughout the state-led recovery efforts.
