Individual Help and Resources
ESCA provides support and assistance to the member jurisdictions in a disaster or emergency that overwhelms local resources. This means that we provide "big picture" coordination but not assistance directly to individuals or families.
As always, if this is a dangerous or life-threatening situation, call 9-1-1.
For other situations, call 2-1-1. The staff there will provide free and confidential information and referral services. This is a nation-wide referral number and can be called from any phone.
Information may be found online at: www.211.org or www.211us.org.
