Maui is bracing for the possible end of FEMA rental assistance, which could further strain housing resources for wildfire survivors. The assistance had recently been extended for an additional 18 days, though a yearlong extension is currently under review. State officials are concerned about the impending deadline for housing assistance, as many survivors are still in need of support following the devastating fires. As the situation develops, officials hope for an extension to alleviate the housing crunch faced by those affected.
