Disaster Relief Disaster comes in all forms, and when you least expect it. Our United Way is ready to step in and access the situation, bring agencies together and provide case management supervision as necessary. During the Downtown Fires, United Way brought agencies together with displaced residents in the United Way building even while the fire department was still battling the blaze downtown. This collaboration allowed agencies to effectively serve the people impacted, limiting duplication of service and providing access to help in a single place. The Downtown Fire families were also recipients of Christmas assistance coordinatedby our United Way. In all, around 20 households were displaced. Disasters take on all forms, from natural to manmade. When the Ruby Jane building was condemed, residents were immediately displaced. United Way deemed this a manmade disaster and activated Disaster Relief, bring agencies together to provide limited assistance to help those residents quickly relocate. |
