FEMA And SBA Discuss Fire Aftermath

Cal Fire
Destruction from the Camp Fire.

It is both unfortunate and a relief to see the speed with which to help the victims of major fires.  We saw it after the Carr Fire hit Redding, we're seeing it again with the Camp Fire, which devastated Paradise. 

Both and the Small Business Administration set up shop soon after the disaster declarations, offering help to both business operators and homeowners. 

Chelsea Irvine of SBA pays a return visit, along with FEMA rep Jovanna Garcia.  They discuss the options available for people whose lives have been turned upside-down by fire.
