Resources for Federal Disaster Relief Available to Wildfire Victims
As previously reported by Gov. Gavin Newsom, California has secured Federal assistance through Federal Disaster Declaration. This means individuals and businesses can apply for Disaster Relief from the Federal Government. This is a huge development and every person and business impacted should explore their options under these programs. The Small Business Administration has set-up a portal for those impacted here:

Plumas County has also created a Business Resource page that provides a lot of useful links to Disaster Recovery Resources.

While these are great resources, in order to get them, you have to be persistent and don’t let the red tape deter you. If you stay persistent, it will work out. Don’t let the red tape stop you!
In addition to these resources, individuals and businesses may be entitled to recover damages from those who caused the fires. If you are interested in learning more about your rights, please don’t hesitate to contact us at (925) 433-6003 or click here to complete our initial contact form.
