FEMA Replaces Cash Offer With Rental Help - Yahoo! News: "By ELISABETH GOODRIDGE, Associated Press Writer Thu Sep 29, 9:51 PM ET

WASHINGTON - The government is offering $2,358 to victims of Hurricane Katrina to help pay for three months' rent, but is no longer handing out $2,000 to people who need immediate cash assistance.

The new rental program began this week and only applies to housing, unlike the previous cash program that offered money to eligible hurricane victims for immediate needs such as food, transportation and shelter."
