Butte County war mit dem t\u00f6dlichsten Waldbrand seit mehr als einem Jahrhundert konfrontiert, dem Camp Fire, bei dem 86 Menschen starben und fast 19.000 Geb\u00e4ude zerst\u00f6rt wurden. In den Bezirken Los Angeles und Ventura forderten die Br\u00e4nde von Hill und Woolsey drei Todesopfer und zwangen Hunderttausende von Einwohnern zum Verlassen ihrer H\u00e4user.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Wildfire Relief Fund\u2019s $11 million in support represents the third round of relief and recovery funding for communities affected by the Camp, Hill and Woolsey Fires, raising the total granted to $17.2 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Diese Zusch\u00fcsse werden durch die unglaubliche Unterst\u00fctzung von Menschen auf der ganzen Welt erm\u00f6glicht, die nach den Br\u00e4nden ihre Hilfe angeboten haben. Seit November haben mehr als 21.000 Einzelpersonen, Familien, Stiftungen und Unternehmen ihre F\u00fcrsorge und Ressourcen mit denjenigen geteilt, die einen Verlust erlitten haben, indem sie f\u00fcr den Fonds gespendet haben.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Determined through consultation with on-the-ground partners in affected areas, the current grants focus on longer-term efforts like access to affordable housing, free or low-cost mental and behavioral healthcare, economic recovery, and bolstering the local social safety net. These grants include $8.3 million in support for Northern California communities affected by the Camp Fire and $2.7 million for Southern California communities impacted by the Hill &amp; Woolsey Fires.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zu den Empf\u00e4ngern geh\u00f6ren:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nordkalifornien-Relief<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nvcf.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">North Valley Gemeinschaftsstiftung<\/a>\u00a0for operational support and capacity building associated with critical long-term wildfire relief efforts related to the Camp Fire.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Leadership Capacity Initiative at the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nvcf.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">North Valley Gemeinschaftsstiftung<\/a>\u00a0to identify and provide opportunities for community leaders to develop skills: from a framework for meaningful collaboration to organizational succession planning.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Trauma Healing Initiative at the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nvcf.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">North Valley Gemeinschaftsstiftung<\/a>\u00a0to work toward a systems change approach to trauma-informed care inclusive of a regional framework and strategy for addressing long-term trauma.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Housing\/Regional Planning Pooled Fund at the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nvcf.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">North Valley Gemeinschaftsstiftung<\/a>\u00a0to facilitate a regional planning process focused on affordability and develop permanent mobile homes for fire victims.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rebuildparadise.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rebuild Paradise Foundation<\/a>\u00a0for capacity to support long-term rebuild efforts in Paradise.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Die<a href=\"https:\/\/www.campfirelongtermrecovery.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u00a0Camp Fire Long-Term Recovery Group<\/a>\u00a0for operational expenses to cover the group\u2019s resource center and program support for direct services (case management, financial support, etc.) for Camp Fire survivors.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Die\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.centerforlearningandresilience.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Butte County Office of Education for the Center for Learning and Resilience<\/a>, a permanent Center offering the full continuum of services to respond to childhood trauma and adversity.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.calvoc.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">California Vocations Inc<\/a>. for capacity support and operational expenses associated with providing 24\/7 supportive services to adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.chicohousingactionteam.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Chico Housing Action Team (CHAT)<\/a>\u00a0for the Camp Fire Housing Access Model Program (CHAMP) which allows CHAT to assist qualifying households seeking subsidized housing.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.afwd.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Alliance for Workforce Development, Inc.<\/a>\u00a0to hire a new case manager to assist clients with barriers to gaining or retaining employment.
