Looking for verification that FEMA is discriminating against LGBT families

Got a report that FEMA and on-the-ground organizations are using Louisiana's DOMA to deny resources to LGBT families, including assistance in locating partners.

LGBTIQ families won't receive survivor benefits or other long-term family aid, FEMA is directing donations to Pat Robertson's Operation Blessing (http://www.fema.gov/nwz01/nwz01_101.shtm), but are LGBT families being deliberately separated and not reunited? Can anyone verify? Does anyone have more details?
