On January 23 – 27, 2026 the State of Mississippi had several counties affected by a severe winter storm. The Mississippi Association of Supervisors established the MAS Disaster Relief Fund "the Fund" for the purpose of assisting qualified county employees who have suffered as a result of a natural disaster like this one.

Minimum Eligibility Guidelines

1. Applicants must have been a county employee on the date of disaster and have sustained damage to their home and/or essential home-related individual property (primary vehicle) and have out-of-pocket expenses of at least $1,000.
    
2. Applicants must provide documentation as set out in the application. No elected officials (including Supervisors) are eligible to apply.
    
3. Upon confirmation of employment, the applications are reviewed by a committee for consideration, and a determination of support will be made, taking into consideration factors including, but not limited to, the applicant's qualifications and documentation, the severity of the need, the availability of relief funds in the Fund and the number of requests.

Submitting an application does not guarantee assistance will be awarded by the Fund. The committee will consider the severity of need, documentation provided, available funds, and number of requests.
