Marshall Fire survivors will have a chance to listen to people who have been through what they are going through Wednesday night when there will be an open forum.
survivors will have a chance to listen to people who have been through what they are going through Wednesday night when there will be an open forum at the Superior Community Center at 6 p.m. and via Zoom. A team from After the Fire, a nonprofit based in wildfire prone areas of California will be available to talk to people about their experiences.“Our organization was born in the middle of the 2017 mega fires that hit the north bay of San Francisco,” she explained Tuesday.
“We lost our house in the Tubbs Fire,” said fire victim Brad Sherwood. “Very similar conditions to what folks here experienced, except it happened in the middle of the night. No evacuation warning. We got out of our house within minutes before the fire consumed it.” Like the Marshall Fire, the survivors have been stuck with things like too little insurance coverage. Sherwood said his home in Santa Rosa was vastly uninsured. What happened was we ended up using not only our dwelling money but our content money to rebuild our house, meaning at the end of the day we had not a penny left over to buy a new chair, or replace anything we lost.”
“It’s natural for people to turn to their local leadership and blame and get very upset. And there’s reasons to be upset very often and you’re in this journey with them together you have to partner with local government to get through a long term disaster, it has to happen. You can hold them accountable but we say call them in, you don’t need to call them out.”
