Need assistance with the process? FEMA has set up 3 Disaster Recovery Centers in New Jersey
You can find those locations here:
Remember, FEMA will only pay for damage that exceeds what your insurance covers. You will want to speak with a representative from your homeowners insurance to see what loss they will cover.
SBA disaster loans are available if you do not qualify for FEMA assistance.
Phone numbers and additional information can be found in the attached Resources document. Mendham Borough will not be able to provide information on these programs – please reach out to FEMA or the SBA directly.
Sincerely,
