County and state employees and nonprofit agencies assisted more than 800 Wrightwood residents, who visited the County-organized Local Assistance Center in Wrightwood on Saturday, April 1.
The Local Assistance Center will be open again today from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
The LAC is a one-stop shop offering expert assistance with insurance claims, rebuilding permits, taxes, and a host of other challenges created by the historic late February-early March blizzard.
The spirit of service was positive as signs of recovery begin for the Wrightwood community.
The LAC, operating at Camp Wrightwood, in Wrightwood, connected mountain residents with a variety of essential County, state and private sector resources.
Services provided at the LAC included building & safety, insurance information, assistance for seniors, public health, tax and property resources, help for veterans, advice on hiring contractors, behavioral health, help for small businesses, transitional assistance, employment assistance, legal services, general disaster aid and more.
The County also provided food distribution, including food boxes, water, clean-up kits and emergency supplies provided by the American Red Cross.
