CPR's Hurricane Isaac Response:
On the evening of August 28th, 2012, the eye of Hurricane Isaac made landfall in Plaquemines Parish. Isaac, a category 1 storm, spanned nearly 200 miles from its center. Storm surges climbed over 12 feet and wind gusts up to 113 miles per hour for over 24 hours. On September 3rd, residents were allowed to return home to survey the damage of the catastrophe. The Governor’s Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness estimated 2,983 homes in Plaquemines Parish were damaged by Hurricane Isaac.

As the Long Term Recovery Organization in Plaquemines Parish, The Committee for Plaquemines Recovery (CPR) is coordinating aid to fulfill unmet needs for individuals affected by the recent hurricane. These needs include gutting, mucking, debris removal, and emergency roof repair. We will also be coordinating efforts for long term recovery.
