Flood assistance
Most money for flood victims is coming from the Small Business Administration (SBA), Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture. These figures respresent dollars already approved by various programs in the year since floods hit the Ohio River Valley. Millions more will be approved in coming months. Other money is coming from Federal Farm Assistance, National Flood Insurance Program, Federal Highway Administration, state grants matching federal programs, state unemployment agencies and other government funds.
