Current Disaster Assistance

Previous Disaster Assistance

The Australian Government Disaster Assist website has been set up by the Australian Government to give individuals and families better access to information about recovery assistance following a disaster. The Australian Government may provide assistance to aid the recovery of Australians most affected by an offshore or onshore disaster. In such cases, this website will have up to date public information messages, relevant free call numbers, information on Australian Government Assistance Packages offered and links to other relevant websites and information.

The Australian Government is continually updating the information on this website and we encourage you to regularly revisit the site for updated information.
