The Indiana Department of Homeland Security (IDHS), in partnership with the Morgan County Emergency Management Agency, is accepting applications from Morgan County residents for the Residential Safe Room Program. This program offers a rebate for the installation of pre-fabricated safe rooms in Morgan County, Indiana residences. Apply here for the Residential Safe Room program
The application period is open from Feb. 10 to March 14.
This round of applications is only open to residents in Morgan County as part of disaster-response funding stemming from tornadoes in March of 2023. Morgan County officials chose to set aside some of that funding to offer this program to its residents.
IDHS will randomly select 25 applicants to receive a rebate for their safe rooms. If approved, homeowners will be reimbursed for 75% ($5,000 max) of their safe room installation costs. Full details can be found on the IDHS Residential Safe Room webpage. IDHS offers this program through a FEMA grant, and all applic ants must comply with federal grant regulations.
If you have any questions, please contact Morgan County EMA at 765-342-8467.
