Stay Prepared: Emergency Resource Hub for Housing Providers
While Santa Ana winds are expected to wain and a chance of rain is on the horizon, dry conditions continue to persist in Southern California. SCRHA reminds members to be prepared and have emergency plans in place. Visit SCRHA’s Emergency Resources webpage for helpful guides and links to resources. When major emergencies do occur, like those in Los Angeles and Ventura counties, anti-price gouging rules are often triggered. SCRHA recommends members bookmark the Governor’s Office of Emergency Services webpage to track where such rules may be in effect.
