Coos Bay Fire, April 3

Disaster action team volunteers with the American Red Cross Thursday afternoon provided assistance after a disaster on the 9100 block of Grinnell Lane in Coos Bay, Oregon. This single-family fire affected one adult, a child and two dogs. The Red Cross provided lodging, comfort kits, and information about disaster health services and disaster mental health services. The Red Cross advocates taking a few moments to review your family’s exit plan should there be a fire in your home. Know what to do before, during and after a home fire. This information, and more, is available at www.redcross.org or in a free Prepare! Resource Guide published by the American Red Cross Cascades Region.
