Year: 2023

Widespread power outages and internet, phone and cable service disruptions following Hurricane Ian led the Charlotte County Joint Information Center to devise alternative ways to reach residents with vital response and recovery information. The JIC created a one-sheet Resource Guide with information about shelters, food and water, utilities outages, recovery centers, medical care sites, debris collection, facility closures and reopenings, donation and volunteer opportunities and more. The Resource Guide was printed and distributed to shelters, disaster recovery centers, food and water distribution sites and medical care sites.
