Louisiana has been hit hard by disasters the last several years — the pandemic, hurricanes, tornadoes, deep freezes, historic flooding. Most reporting happens in the immediate aftermath of a storm, and information is often scattered across the internet. It is usually only in English, not reaching underserved areas, and confusing to navigate.

We are changing that—deepening connections with community partners and residents in south Louisiana year round. Together, we’re supporting work on the ground to ensure folks prepare well before a disaster strikes, and we’re committed to this place during the long journey to recovery.
