Subject: Puerto Rico: New deadline to request federal disaster assistance

Dear HENTF Colleagues,

Please forward this notice to your constituents and colleagues in cultural institutions and arts organizations in Puerto Rico. Apologies in advance for duplicate postings.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) wants to remind arts and cultural organizations that recovery help may be available from a variety of sources. To take advantage of the full range of assistance that may be available, it's important that these organizations submit a Request for Public Assistance (RPA) to the Governor's Authorized Representative (GAR) before the new deadline of February 17.

To learn more about eligible essential and critical service providers and private nonprofit eligibility, refer to the Public Assistance Program and Policy Guide on the FEMA website at https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.fema.gov_public-2Dassistance-2Dpolicy-2Dand-2Dguidance&d=DwIFAg&c=cjytLXgP8ixuoHflwc-poQ&r=LpYc_Z_iN1KRw0hheb3x6-8MJUMu482qfHowpGYJqwc&m=DY2lpYqLHdus7M7TEb-Z0Y40xU_Jfvyx5p8dFrFSu5k&s=7tEK9unRcKravvTUBdg3DERRUCbyX6hDLJ1EJfqundw&e=.

I am deploying to Puerto Rico on Monday to assist cultural institutions and arts organizations in the recovery effort. You can still reach me via email or phone, though I might be a little slow in responding.

Thank you,
Lori
