Carr Fire Long-Term Recovery Effort Starts In Redding

The Carr Fire approaching Redding, August 2018.

The fires swept through and the government agencies swept in soon after to provide support for fire victims.  But rebuilding after a major fire takes quite a while. 

So groups including the Salvation Army and the Shasta Regional Community Foundation have joined forces in NorCal CRT (community recovery team), designed to provide long-term support to people who lost homes and more in the Carr and Delta fires last summer.  Timothy Danielsen of the Salvation Army and Kerry Caranci of SRCF visit.
