MONTGOMERY, Ala — Workers in Baldwin, Escambia and Mobile counties that lost their jobs due to Hurricane Sally may be eligible for assistance under the Disaster Unemployment Assistance program.
According to the Alabama Department of Labor, you must have become unemployed due to Hurricane Sally during the period of September 14, 2020, in order to be eligible for the program.
