Dear HENTF Members,

HENTF has only learned of a few impacts to cultural institutions and arts organizations in Alabama, but the smallest organizations may not know who to contact for assistance. Please reach out to your Alabama members and constituents with the following information:
A major disaster declaration<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.fema.gov%2Fdisaster%2F4684%2Fdesignated-areas&data=05%7C01%7CPalmerL%40si.edu%7Cf5eba44ea8e8468522e708db046c79c3%7C989b5e2a14e44efe93b78cdd5fc5d11c%7C0%7C0%7C638108636178241358%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=TNI4GkjA4LJHbDFG3zr%2Fnq5uiQOdsK%2FwvSDC9MyoIw8%3D&reserved=0> for Alabama was declared on January 15. All categories of Public Assistance (PA) have just opened up for 9 AL counties: Autauga, Barbour, Chambers, Conecuh, Coosa, Dallas, Elmore, Hale, and Tallapoosa. Private non-profit cultural institutions and arts organizations in these counties are now eligible to apply for repair of their facility as well as of any damaged collections materials.

Additional resources:

  *   Cultural institutions and arts organizations affected by the flooding can call the National Heritage Responders hotline: 202.661.8068. The National Heritage Responders, a team of trained conservators and collections care professionals administered by the Foundation for Advancement in Conservation, are available 24/7 to provide phone advice and guidance.

  *   Members of the public who have questions about saving family heirlooms can email the National Heritage Responders at NHRpublichelpline at culturalheritage.org<mailto:NHRpublichelpline at culturalheritage.org>
