SUMMARY: Nearly a month after floods devastated Eastern Kentucky, many victims are still struggling to recover. Betty Jean Carter, Daniel Hanner, and their children lost everything in February’s floods, but due to FEMA’s designation of disaster areas, they are not eligible for aid, as Leslie County has not been approved for individual assistance. Though they are staying in Perry County shelters, priority is given to local residents. As the shelter prepares to close, the family faces uncertainty. Local organizations are stepping in to help, and victims are urged to document damages for potential FEMA assistance.

“Our house was split in half and gone and our neighbor actually passed away. So, I fully believe that if we would’ve been in the home that it would not have been good for anybody. I don’t know if we would be able to get out,” said Carter.
