The 2008 Flood Recovery Program was established in September 2009. The Wisconsin Conference of The United Methodist Church has been selected by the State of Wisconsin's Department of Health Services to administer and distribute $6 million dollars in Federal Social Services Block Grant funds from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services - Administration for Children and Families, Office of Community Service.
The goal of the 2008 Flood Recovery Program is to find and help homeowners affected by the devastating floods and storms that occurred during the summer of 2008. This Program will assist homeowners in a 30-county area of Southern Wisconsin. See a map of the affected area.
This Program provides financial assistance for repairs to the damage of primary residences, replacement of essential items such as furnaces, appliances, etc., and case management support and resources in the 30-county area.
