Abstract
Our community was called on to provide medical services, social services, food, shelter, transportation, and clothing to as many as 500 evacuees (people who had left their homes in advance of the storm) in our community shelter. In addition, we provided the same services for an estimated 4000 to 6000 additional evacuees who were in the area and living with family or in campgrounds, motels, and churches.Keywords
