SEMA News Release

A Multi-Agency Resource Center will be held in Delta on Saturday, May 3, to assist those impacted by the severe storms, tornadoes and flooding that occurred between March 30 and April 8. The State Emergency Management Agency has coordinated with volunteer partners and other state and local agencies to organize this event.

A MARC is a one-stop shop that pulls together recovery resources, support services and provides information about potential resources that may be available. Participating agencies will include the East Missouri Action Agency, Catholic Charities of Southern Missouri, The Salvation Army, Community Counseling Center, American Red Cross, Cape Girardeau County Health Department, Missouri Department of Insurance and more.

Saturday, May 3
Delta High School (FEMA building behind the Delta High School)
324 N Liberty Street
Delta, MO 63744
10 a.m. - 2 p.m.

The MARC will be available to residents impacted in the Delta area. Agencies at the MARC can only assist individuals and families, not businesses. Those planning to attend should bring photo identification, proof of address, and photos of the damage to be eligible for assistance from some agencies. If identification has been lost due to storms, representatives at the MARC can assist residents with information on how to replace IDs and other important paperwork.

Missourians with unmet needs are encouraged to contact United Way by dialing 2-1-1 or the American Red Cross at 1-800-733-2767.
