How to Help Hurricane Ian’s Disabled Survivors ⬇️
There are agencies and protocols in place to help mitigate the needs of vulnerable populations, including the disabled community. But, especially when processing the shock of a disaster, navigating resources can feel overwhelming.
Here are some places to start:
▪️Federal Emergency Management Agencys suggests that monetary support be funneled through the National Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster (National VOAD)
▪️ The Partnership for Inclusive Disaster Strategies is also accepting financial gifts to support Hurricane Ian victims, with a focus on survivors within the disability community.
▪️ American Red Cross is another organization spearheading contributions.
FEMA Federal Emergency Management Agency also recommends that those who want to volunteer align with organized associations, such as the Florida VOAD -Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster and South Carolina VOAD. And for additional guidance on other post-hurricane needs, please visit the storm-specific page of Usa.gov.
