IA covers direct aid to households: housing repairs, rental assistance, and other needs. PA funds infrastructure repair and emergency protective measures managed by local governments and nonprofits. The dollar figures on this page reflect what FEMA's open datasets report as obligated, which may differ from final disbursements.
