North Dakota Flooding Resources

Many North Dakotans have been impacted by flooding throughout the state and region. I’ll continue to work with federal, state and local officials to ensure resources to fight the flood are available now and in the days to come. Please use the following websites and phone numbers to find up-to-date information on flooding in the state and to find resources to help with the flood fight and the ensuing recovery.

North Dakotans have always come together in times of need. With our state facing significant challenges due to flooding, I am confident we will do so again. That’s the North Dakota way.
