Hurricane Evacuee Support

Yesterday, the State of Utah set up a toll free number for Utahns who wish to volunteer their time and resources to help the hurricane evacuees coming to Utah.

In a memo from the Utah Department of Health Director Dr. David Sundwall states,
“Response has been overwhelming through the toll free number. As a result, we have designated this email address as another option for those interested in offering help.”
Along with the toll free number, 866-873-2437 (through the Department of Health), an email address, katrinavolunteers@utah.gov, has been created for volunteers and community services to offer their time, help, advice and expertise.

FEMA has developed a good list of resources.
