3. Some reSources for You

I understand what You're dealing with. Before You jump into the recovery process, check out some of these sites & see if You can get some Volunteer help & donations. Don't be too proud to ask for help, or think You can do it ALL YourSelf.

Austin Common Ground, in & around Houston, are doing amazing Work. They have great information & reSources for recovery, please look at them before You get started.
(I witnessed Common Ground in NOLA post Katrina, they're effective & efficient, no waste or nonsense. Anyone looking to donate or volunteer, I highly recommend Common Ground!)
BASH (Bayou Street Medics)
Another wonderful group doing Harvey recovery.
Again, I really recommend, they have great reSources YOU might use.

In Florida :
MADRelief (Mutual Aid Disaster Relief) If You want to pm me Your contact info, I will get a message to them, or You can call them.

Also, look into:
Food Not Bombs
&
Build Autonomy
Best Wishes & Blessings to YOU! 💖
