Under the leadership of President Trump and Secretary Noem, FEMA announced today more than $4 million in federal grant funding to support the state of Indiana as it leads community recovery from severe storms, tornadoes and flooding in Spring 2025.
This funding helps cover road repair, critical infrastructure restoration and other emergency actions taken to protect life and property following the storm.
“Hoosiers were severely impacted by these devastating storms,” said Indiana Governor Mike Braun. “I am grateful to President Trump and Secretary Noem for approving this support and prioritizing helping Hoosiers move forward stronger and more resilient. This funding will make a major difference by reimbursing communities for all the work they’ve done to repair roads, restore power services, and rebuild critical infrastructure since the storms hit last spring.”
This funding is part of a broader effort announced by the Department of Homeland Security. In this past week alone, DHS and FEMA approved more than $2.2 billion in Public Assistance projects to communities across the U.S.
Here are some of the FEMA grants provided to the state and communities:
- $133,000 - for repairs to Owen Valley High School facilities damaged by the disaster
FEMA is reimbursing these costs at no less than a 75% federal share through its Public Assistance Program which provides funds for state and local governments response and recovery work. To date, more than $12 million has been provided to the state for road repair, debris removal, critical infrastructure repair and more from this disaster.
