Financial assistance is now available for victims of the Spokane Complex and Upriver fires, administered by the Spokane Housing Authority.

The Washington State Department of Commerce granted Spokane County $500,000 dollars to disperse to effected individuals.

To qualify for a portion of the grant, an individual must have been temporarily or permanently displaced by one of the fires and have a household income of under 140% of the median income of the area.
