Cobb County had approximately 5,000 residents register for FEMA assistance. The Christian Reformed World Relief Committee (CRWRC) is sending a 20-person team to Cobb November 7 to facilitate needs assessments for those affected.
They will go door to door asking if they were affected by the floods and if they were they’ll ask what their unmet needs are,” said Becky Purdom, the individual volunteer opportunities coordinator for CRWRC.
All the requests, from new doors to mental health requests, will be collected and prioritized for the long-term recovery centers to begin addressing.
Purdom said CRWRC expects to receive need assessment requests from Douglas County and Paulding County as well.
