Assisting Older Homeowners After a Natural Disaster (Free)

Older adults face unique challenges and exhibit different vulnerabilities during and after a natural disaster. Older homeowners, for example, may need additional assistance securing their homes and moving out of a storm's path. Recovering from the disaster may also be a challenge for older adults on fixed or limited income. This session will address both the practical challenges and resources available to aid older homeowners after a disaster. The discussion will highlight the loss mitigation and other options available to prevent mortgage foreclosure, as well as the housing and other related assistance offered by FEMA.

Presenters are Odette Williamson, staff attorney, National Consumer Law Center and Sapna Aiyer managing attorney, Housing & Consumer Unit, Lone Star Legal Aid.
