Resources for those affected by Wildfire

 

Dear APHCV Patients and Members.

We at APHCV hope you and your families and friends are safe. We have put together a list of resources below that we were able to find.  This list is still evolving and changing. We will continue updating the list on our website, so please keep checking the list at www.aphcv.org

At this past weekend’s various press conferences, County Supervisors’ offices (District 3 and District 5) stated that their office websites posted helpful information.

Get to Know the Third District – Supervisor Lindsey P. Horvathhttps://lindseyhorvath.lacounty.gov/get-to-know-third-district/

Kathryn Barger – COUNTY OF LOS ANGELEShttps://lacounty.gov/government/board-of-supervisors/kathryn-barger/

If you are not in their districts, you can still contact your County Supervisor to seek information and help. Check this site for your County Supervisorial District — County of Los Angeles Board of Supervisors > Homehttps://bos.lacounty.gov/

City of Los Angeles‘ website offers information on re-entry, wildfire recovery resources, damage assessment, rain impacts and preparation, pet assistance, updates and evaculation orders, and more.

Please take care and if you have any question, please do not hesitate to call Member and Community Services Unit at extension 507 or 388.  Sincerely, APHCV Care Team.
