Official information should override screenshots, reposts, and earlier copies of recovery information.
Before traveling: Call 211 or confirm directly with the destination. Do not assume a shelter can accept pets or meet mobility, medical-equipment, transportation, or language needs.
The next release
One clear place to connect
The full hub will be organized around what a neighbor needs to do, not around knowing which agency or organization to search for.
I Need Help
For urgent, essential, or serious needs such as shelter, food, medication, transportation to safety, major property damage, or essential pet support.
I Could Use Some Help
For households that are safe enough, but stretched or overwhelmed by cleanup, meals, laundry, rides, tools, paperwork, pet care, or ordinary recovery strain.
I Can Help
For neighbors, businesses, and groups offering labor, meals, supplies, equipment, transportation, space, skilled services, or another useful resource.

Community Recovery Board
Public connection without another account.
Post directly. Requests and offers will use a public contact method chosen by the poster.
Keep it current. Time-sensitive listings will expire instead of becoming stale clutter.
Review by exception. Listings will not be individually pre-screened, but suspicious or unsafe items can be reported for review.
Community Safety Notice
Human decency matters. Caution still matters.
The public board is being designed for direct community submissions and will not be individually pre-screened before listings appear.
When posting opens, do not publish private street addresses, sensitive personal information, insurance details, medical information, information about children, or anything you would not want publicly visible.
Verify information independently. Use reasonable caution when contacting or meeting someone. Meet in a safe place when possible, and never enter unsafe or restricted property.
Please be careful. Please look out for one another. Please be a good human.
