"So
far this year to date we have engaged post disaster care for
over 7 families. We cared for 3 families in the Murdock WA
fire, and offered assistance to one other who refused. While
simultaneously providing care for 2 other families burned
out in Biggs Junction, OR around the same time. We also recently
assisted families burned out in Klickitat, WA and, White Salmon
WA,"
