The Red Cross has opened Community Outreach Centers to support individuals impacted by the severe weather and tornadoes throughout western and central Kentucky over the Memorial Day weekend, including in Princeton and Dawson Springs.
The Red Cross is offering emergency assistance through its outreach centers and several mobile community outreach teams. Caseworkers are available to meet one-on-one with individuals to develop personalized recovery plans for those whose homes have been significantly damaged or destroyed, navigate paperwork, and locate help from other agencies.
The Caldwell Command Outreach Center is located at 102 Northfield Drive in Princeton and will be open on Wednesday, June 5, and Thursday, June 6, from 11 AM to 6 PM.
In addition, Red Cross opened a Command Outreach Center at Charleston First Baptist Church located at 3476 Charleston Road in Dawson Springs. It will be open Wednesday, June 5, and Thursday, June 6, from 10 AM to 6 PM.
If you are unable to attend, you may call 1-800-REDCROSS (1-800-733-2767).
In addition to Princeton and Dawson Springs, Red Cross Community Outreach Centers opened in Beechmont, Bowling Green, and Hopkinsville.
With the help of partners, as of Tuesday, the Red Cross in Kentucky has served nearly 3,000 meals and snacks distributed to more than 230 relief teams and has provided help to people with medical or disability needs, as well as emotional and spiritual support.
