The MPI Southern California Chapter has compiled a comprehensive list of resources for evacuees and those impacted, including:
– Emergency relief and evacuation assistance

– Mental health resources and counselling
Additionally, Los Angeles Tourism has established a dedicated landing page for the American Red Cross, where they are matching all donations dollar for dollar up to $25,000. The Los Angeles Regional Office of the Red Cross has been on the ground since day one, providing safe shelter, food, emotional support, and other critical services. If you’d like to support this effort, please visit the LA Tourism microsite for the Red Cross.
