Getting tribes disaster ready
Hurricane Ian caused catastrophic damage, but most tribal members and communities weathered the storm, although they still require federal assistance.
Today on Native America Calling, Shawn Spruce gets an update on recovery efforts and looks at how other tribes are preparing for impending disasters.Survivors of #Ian are beginning their recovery with help from the whole federal family. To reach as many people as possible, teams assist at shelters & go door-to-door seeking out those who have limited mobility due to disability or transportation access.https://t.co/iAyEc6Ogb0 pic.twitter.com/u3lhBHwYqt
