Mobile Disaster Recovery Center Coming to Okmulgee

A mobile recovery center opens this week in Okmulgee to help county residents whose homes or businesses were damaged during a month of severe weather.

"It's kind of a one-stop shop where you can get assistance from state officials, federal officials will be there, the [Small Business Administration]," said Okmulgee County Emergency Management Director Tim Craighton. "I wouldn't swear to it, but I think a Red Cross person will be there, also."

The mobile center will be at Green Country Technology Center, 1100 OK-56 Loop east of Highway 75.

It will be open Thursday from 1–7 p.m., Friday and Saturday from 7 a.m.–7 p.m., Sunday from 1–7 p.m., and Monday and Tuesday from 7 a.m.–7 p.m.

Okmulgee County residents whose homes or businesses were damaged between May 4 and June 4 are welcome to register.
