STAFF REPORT

Support hub to provide housing and insurance guidance through Sunday

The Pasadena-Foothills Association of Realtors has established the Eaton Wildfire Resource Center, committing to help affected individuals and families rebuild and recover from the recent disaster.

Set to operate from January 22 through January 26, the center at 1070 Green Street will provide crucial services to individuals and families seeking to rebuild their lives.

The facility will remain open daily from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., with dedicated volunteers offering four specific support services to those impacted by the wildfire.

These services include helping residents access available housing units that suit their needs and providing step-by-step guidance through the leasing process.

Volunteers will also assist residents in understanding their insurance policies and exploring coverage options while connecting them to essential support resources.

“Whether you have questions about securing a temporary home, understanding your insurance benefits, or accessing additional resources, we’re here to provide the answers you need.”

The center will facilitate access to short-term housing solutions, clean-up effort coordination, financing assistance, and guidance on next steps forward.

Parking accommodations are available on the second level at the rear of the building.
