With the possibility that some of our members have been or will be impacted during this hurricane season, The Rev. Paul McCabe, diocesan disaster planning and response coordinator, has prepared a list of resources that give information about how to best respond and volunteer in the event of damaging storms in our area.
Three Key Things To Remember
-
It is important to let the first responders do their jobs and not put ourselves in unnecessary risk taking situations.
-
Pay attention to information going out from the state and other sources.
- Text messaging and social media are the best forms of communication rather than phones if circuits become over burdened.
