PEMBROKE, Va. – FEMA announced a Disaster Recovery Center will be opening at 120 Pembroke Park Lane in Giles County on Monday, Oct. 28. The center will be open from 8 a.m. - 6 p.m., Monday through Saturday.
“We’ve identified that people are still struggling, and we know they’re out there and need our help so this is our way of saying ‘Hey we see what’s going on, we’re here, reach out to us and let us know how we can help.”
Trey Paul, FEMA Media Relations Specialist.
FEMA also stated that if you are a disaster survivor, you can visit any DRC to receive assistance. More will be opening up in Southwest Virginia as to make it more accessible for more victims to get assistance.
