August 23, 2021—Hurricane Henri, though recently downgraded to a tropical depression, continues to move across the east coast, as those in middle Tennessee face the aftermath of severe flash flooding. Please share the following resources with any cultural institutions that may need help recovering:
Monitor the storm at National Hurricane Center or from your state emergency management agency. See the HENTF dashboard for graphics from the National Hurricane Center as well as preparedness tips for cultural institutions and other useful links.
Review these Flood Recovery Resources, as compiled by the Foundation for Advancement in Conservation (FAIC).
Browse the SAA Disaster Response and Recovery Resources page for compiled information on hurricane and flash flooding.
Request support from the SAA Foundation National Disaster Recovery Fund for Archives (NDRFA).
