Superstorm Sandy Needs Assessment for Union County

Help for Sandy Survivors
September 23—October 4, 2013

World Renew is coming to Union County to meet with you and discuss your unmet needs arising from Superstorm Sandy.  An international disaster recovery organization, World Renew has 40 years of experience and has conducted similar surveys in most of the Sandy-affected counties of New Jersey and New York.

Union County residents can go to any World Renew Walk-in Center listed below. You may call ahead to make an appointment or just stop in. If you can't come to one of the walk-in centers, call us and we will make other arrangements for you.

After your appointment, World Renew will present your needs to the Union County Long-Term Recovery Group (UCLTRG) which can provide resources to those affected by the disaster regardless of race, creed, color, gender, citizenship, disability, sexual orientation, household composition, or religious preference.  UCLTRG is a volunteer coalition of faith-based, non-profit, governmental, business, and other organizations.
