The centers will have resources from United Way 211 as well as cleaning supplies and other household items. Information related to housing needs and recovery resources will be available from agencies such as the Lee County Department of Human & Veteran Services.
People with damaged residences due to Hurricane Idalia can continue to call United Way’s 211 line (dial 2-1-1 or 239-433-3900) for resources or register with Crisis Cleanup by calling 800-451-1954.
