Hurricane Recovery Information

Disaster Recover Center

The Disaster Recovery Center is at the Enoch D. Davis Center at 1111 18th Ave. S., St. Petersburg. It is open daily from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. through Nov. 27. It will closed Monday, Nov. 11, in observance of Veterans Day. Any changes to the schedule will be updated on this webpage.

DRCs serve as centralized locations where people can access various services and information related to disaster recovery, including application assistance, information and guidance on disaster assistance programs, translation and accessibility services, application status updates, access to disaster-related resources, and access to computers and phones.

If your FEMA disaster assistance application was denied, FEMA may need additional information. The Disaster Recovery Center (DRC) provides in-person assistance to help residents update their applications.

When visiting a DRC, it’s a good idea to bring identification, proof of residence, insurance information, and any documentation related to your disaster-related losses to facilitate the application process and ensure you receive the appropriate assistance.
