Section
206(a) of the Disaster Mitigation Act of
2000 (DMA 2000) (Public Law 106–390)
consolidated the ‘‘Temporary Housing
Collection of Information Assistance’’
and the ‘‘Individual and Family Grant
Programs’’ into a single program called
‘‘Federal Assistance to Individuals and
Households’’ (IHP) at section 408 of the
Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and
Emergency Assistance Act (Pub. L. 93–
288, as amended). To implement this
consolidation, which is intended to
streamline the provision of assistance to
disaster applicants, FEMA published
regulations at 44 CFR 206.110 through
206.120. Pursuant to these regulations,
applicants are able to request approval
of late registrations, request continued
assistance, and appeal program
decisions. Similarly, States can partner
with FEMA for delivery of disaster
assistance under the ‘‘Other Needs’’
provision of the IHP through
Administrative Option Agreements and
Administration Plans addressing the
level of managerial and resource
support necessary.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Collection of Information
Title: Federal Assistance to
Individuals and Households Programs.
Type of Information Collection:

Assistance (Application for Continued
Temporary Housing Assistance).
Abstract: The Federal Assistance to
Individuals and Households Program
(IHP) enhances applicants’ ability to
request approval of late applications,
request continued assistance, and
appeal program decisions. Similarly, it
allows States to partner with FEMA for
delivery of disaster assistance under the
‘‘Other Needs’’ provision of the IHP
through Administrative Option
Agreements and Administration Plans
addressing the level of managerial and
resource support necessary.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households; State, Local or Tribal
