A Major Disaster Declaration (FEMA-4933-DR) has been approved and includes Lake, Porter, and LaPorte counties in connection with the August 11th storm.

This is a critical step forward from the initial Emergency Declaration declared on August 15th, as this new declaration unlocks FEMA Individual Assistance. This means resources such as direct federal grants, housing aid, and resources are now available to impacted homeowners, renters, and business owners in Northwest Indiana.

Slide through the graphics for a clear breakdown of:

🛠️ Direct Home Repair & Essential Property Grants
💰️ Disaster Unemployment & SBA Assistance
✅️ How to Apply & Important Steps to Take

As NWI transitions away from emergency response, we are here to support you. Whether you need a recommended local contractor or guidance on documenting damage, call or text us anytime!

If you're dealing with financial stress following the recent storm, don't be afraid to talk with your creditors about your options.

Because of the Federal Disaster Declaration that includes our area, many creditors have disaster relief programs in place.

⚠️ The most important step: Call your lenders and service providers BEFORE you miss a payment. Let them know you live in a federally declared disaster area and ask what options are available.

We live here, too, and we're in this together. If you need help finding local resources, vetted contractor recommendations, or just have questions about your home, reach out anytime:

It’s been a week since the derecho blew through The Region. For days now, we’ve been reaching out to our clients across the area, and one thing is clear: so many of you are exhausted, frustrated, and overwhelmed.

For some, getting back to normal isn’t going to happen quickly, but please know you don’t have to figure it out alone. Here are key recovery tips and resources to help:

📋 REPORT DAMAGE (DO THIS FIRST)
Indiana 211: Call 866-211-9966 or visit on.in.gov/IN-211
Open to Lake, LaPorte, Newton & Porter residents. Reporting proves to agencies that NWI needs help. Report even small damage!

🛑 PROTECT YOURSELF FROM SCAMS
The "storm chasers" are already out, here’s some steps to protect yourself against scams:
• Photo/video all damage BEFORE clean-up.
• Get written quotes, verify insurance, and NEVER pay in full upfront.
• Report fraud/price-gouging to IN AG: 1-800-382-5516

🥫 FOOD & ESSENTIALS
• SNAP Replacement Benefits: in.gov/fssa/dfr/snap-food-assistance
• Food Bank: foodbanknwi.org
• IN Disaster Relief: app.smartsheet.com/b/form/1ff14bd335c44c50bae1978f4953fbcd
Or simply dial 211. It’s free, available 24/7, and a real person will guide you to local support.

🏠 SHELTER & HOUSING
• Red Cross Shelters: redcross.org/local/indiana/get-help
• Housing Help: 1-877-428-8844 | indianahousingnow.org

💙 MENTAL HEALTH SUPPORT
Call or text 988, it's free, confidential, and available 24/7. An exhausting, high-stress week is a valid reason to reach out. You don't have to be in crisis to talk.

🤝 HOW WE CAN HELP YOU DIRECTLY
If you need a hand, please reach out. If we can't do it ourselves, we'll find someone who can:

• Clean-Up: Debris & branch clearing.
• Essentials: Water, food, or essential supplies.
• Guidance: Answer questions about insurance, damage docs, or home impacts.
• Contractors: When you’re ready to make repairs, connect you with trusted local pros.

Call or text us anytime:
📱 Marc: (219) 433-5002
📱 Eric: (219) 218-4863

We aren't just real estate agents. We live here too and have been navigating this right alongside you. We are all in this together and will come out stronger, NWI!

Take it one day at a time, check on your neighbors, and lean on us or those around you if you need help. ❤️
