Recovery from a big fire in any community unfolds in stages.
Now that cleanup from the September 2020 fires is mostly complete, work is ramping up at the Jackson County Community Long-Term Recovery Group.
The name is just like it sounds: JCCLTRG puts fire survivors in contact with resources that help them rebuild their lives and move home.
The group just announced the appointment of an executive director, Caryn Wheeler-Clay.
We bring the new boss to the JX for a chat about rebuilding, resources, and timelines.
