We’re still learning about the damage #HurricaneHelene has caused to #childcare programs. If your program has been impacted or you’re supporting providers, we have resources to help with recovery. Key Tips: • Assess damage safely, and contact professionals for complex inspections. •Document damage thoroughly with photos and keep receipts for all expenses. •Reach out to your local CCR&R or licensing consultant for guidance. •Explore available disaster assistance options through FEMA. For more resources and support, contact our Emergency Preparedness, Response, and Recovery team at [email protected]. Together, we can rebuild child care strong.
