Disaster Assistance Resources
In an effort to assist Centers for Independent Living, Statewide Independent Living Councils and disability organizations in coping with the recent and impending hurricanes and other natural disasters, ILRU is making available a Disaster Relief Resource Wiki site for posting durable medical equipment and other supply needs and resources. You can access the site at http://disability911.pbwiki.com/ . If your organization has a need for equipment or supplies, i.e. durable medical equipment and medical supplies, please post your request to the site.
Organizations who have durable medical equipment or supplies to donate may also post information to the site. To post, you will need to login with the password or invite key: 911 and then select "Edit" at the top of the page. Complete instructions for using the site are available on the site's home page at http://disability911.pbwiki.com/.
Please feel free to share this information with your colleagues.
Thank you,
