HAZARD, Ky. (WYMT) - The Kentucky River Area Development District is hosting meetings starting Thursday regarding flood recovery in Breathitt, Knott, Letcher and Perry Counties.
KRADD Executive Director Michelle Allen said they want to hear from people directly impacted by the flood.
“We want to hear all of the needs of the community because there may be things out there that organizations like us or even local governments do not realize people still need,” she said.
The following is an overview of factors and documentation taken into consideration for vehicle claims.

Legal Services Corporation has launched the Legal Aid Disaster Resource Center website to provide additional support and resources to disaster legal aid organizations and professionals, pro bono volunteers, and disaster survivors. You can visit the Disaster Resource Center at www.ladrc.org.
