The Texas Hill Country is facing devastating impacts from recent flooding, with lives lost, people missing, and widespread damage across Kerr County and communities along the Guadalupe River. These are our neighbors, clients, and colleagues, and we know many social workers are looking for ways to help. The NASW Texas Chapter has created a resource page with information on how to donate, sign up to volunteer, and stay informed as needs evolve. Please remember that you should only respond through official channels. Self-deployment is not advised. Read our full statement and access resources here: https://bit.ly/NASWTX_FloodResponse
