Wildfires in the Western States of the US are having a huge impact on communities, travel and health.
The fires in Washington, Oregon and California are close to populated areas. Here is useful information offered by friends of NCCSD for people with disabilities potentially affected by the fires. The Partnership for Inclusive Disaster Strategies is the only organization led by disabled people with a focus on disability needs and rights before, during and after disasters.
