Gov. Chet Culver is reminding Iowa flood victims that time is running out to apply for emergency food aid.
Monday is the deadline for Iowans in presidentially declared disaster areas to apply for emergency food assistance through the Iowa Department of Human Services.
The federally funded program is a one-time benefit for Iowans dealing with summer storms and flooding.
Benefits are determined by household size. The benefit for a family of four is $668 while a two-member household is eligible for a benefit of $367.
Benefits are available only for residents of the 32 counties declared presidential disaster areas for individual assistance.
