If not applicable to you/your family, please share this information with anyone who may have been affected by the floods in Manoa or any area on the island. There are different resources available – so choose the best for your or that person’s/family’s situation:
The Manoa Hub ‘Storm Closet’ is currently open on 2626 Anuenue Street. Stop by if you need FREE cleaning and other supplies.
Aloha United Way 211 has resources for those who have been affected by the floods across the State. Here is a link to their website: AUW211
HNL Alert is encouraging individuals who have been affected by the flood to fill out its voluntary survey to help City and State officials determine the various needs across the State. Here is a link to the website: HNL Alert Home Damage Assessment
The Environmental Protection Agency has important reference information about flood cleanup. Here is a link to their website: Flood Cleanup Reference Information
Storm Debris Pick Up: Unfortunately, there is no specific disaster related rubbish pick up scheduled for Manoa at this point. If you do have refuse from the storm that needs to be collected, please call the City’s Refuse Division at 808-768-3200 and see if they will accommodate your request.
Insurance can be very confusing, especially figuring out what kind of policy will cover damages. Here is a link to the Hawaii State Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs Insurance Division website – there is a special section on insurance related to disasters when you scroll down: Insurance Division Consumer Resources
A recent Civil Beat article summarizes what help residents can get from FEMA if (operative word) there is a disaster declaration made. This is more for reference at this point as there are things that residents must do before they can request help from FEMA: How Residents Can Benefit From FEMA
