Orange, TX. – The South East Texas Disaster Recovery Group (SETDRG) has requested the services of a national disaster recovery group to determine who in the community will not be able to rebuild and recover without assistance. A team of World Renew volunteers will conduct one-on-one interviews with flood survivors from September 12 to 23, 2016. This process will help to prioritize individual needs and connect survivors with the SETDRG which can provide long-term support during recovery with individual case management.
The SETDRG is organizing four walk-in locations across the counties from September 12 to 23, 2016. Residents affected by the flood who require assistance for flood recovery are encouraged to visit a walk-in center to complete a short interview regarding flood losses and recovery needs. Home visits will be available for those who are home-bound or have transportation difficulties. Call the Sharing Station at 409-597-0122 to schedule an appointment.
All information given at the walk-in centers is confidential and will assist designated case managers to help residents connect with available resources. The information will also help to develop a detailed estimate of the total cost for recovery in the communities which helps the SETDRG as well as government agencies raise the necessary recovery funds and donations of building materials and supplies
Interview questions are straightforward and should not require residents to supply any paperwork, although if flood survivors do have a FEMA number, they are asked to bring that with them to the center.
