STATE ASSISTANCE

Iowa's Individual Disaster Assistance program can assist  people with low incomes. Iowans with household incomes of up to 130 percent of federal poverty guidelines may apply for a grant of up to $3,300 to help recover from tornado damage. This is a reimbursement program, meaning that applicants must include receipts for uninsured loss when applying for help.
