Disaster Recovery Center in Oneonta Closing May 31

Cerrará El Centro Ubicado En Bayonne, Cambio En El Horario De Atención Del Centro Ubicado En Bay Head

Trenton, N.J. — Uno de los Centros de Recuperación por Desastre (DRC, por sus siglas en inglés) enel condado de Hudson cerrará este sábado.

El centro ubicado en Bayonne City Museum en Bayonne cerrará a las 7:00 p.m. el 29 de diciembre.

Funcionarios federales y estatales estuvieron muy atentos a la cantidad de solicitantes que visitan los centros en todo el estado. En las últimas semanas, el número de personas que buscó ayuda en el centro de Bayonne disminuyó, lo cual indica que las necesidades de información de los sobrevivientes del área han sido satisfechas.                                                                                                                           

Los sobrevivientes del huracán Sandy en el área de Bayonne pueden visitar cualquier centro ubicado en el estado.

Entretanto,  el centro ubicado en Bay Head Fire Station No. 1 en Bay Head cambió el horario de atención; el horario actual es de lunes a sábado de 9:00am a 7:00pm, de ese modo atenderá en el mismo horario que el resto de los centros ubicados a través del estado.

En los centros los residentes pueden hablar personalmente con representantes de recuperación. Especialistas en programas de la Agencia Federal para el Manejo de Emergencias (FEMA, por sus siglas en inglés) están disponibles en los centros para brindar información sobre la inscripción y otro tipo de información así como para responder preguntas. También cuentan con especialistas en mitigación que pueden brindar asesoramiento sobre cómo reconstruir económicamente y técnicas de reparación para reducir los daños a la propiedad en futuros desastres.

Además de los especialistas en programas de FEMA, representantes de atención al cliente de la Agencia Federal para el Desarrollo de la Pequeña Empresa (SBA, por sus siglas en inglés) de los Estados Unidos están disponibles para responder preguntas acerca del programa de préstamos por desastre de bajo interés de la SBA y para brindar asistencia con las solicitudes de préstamos por desastre.

Las ubicaciones de los DRC pueden cambiar. Visite FEMA.gov/DRC para encontrar el centro más cercano abierto.

No es necesario acudir a un centro para recibir asistencia.

La misión de FEMA es apoyar a los ciudadanos y a las agencias de primera respuesta para garantizar que, como país, trabajemos juntos para desarrollar, mantener y mejorar nuestra capacidad de prepararnos, protegernos y recuperarnos de los peligros, responder ante ellos y mitigarlos.
