(See TEJAS report on disproportionate impacts of Harvey on low-income people of color) https://anothergulf.com/a-just-harvey-recovery/ is the primary online hub for response efforts of the If there are other efforts with similar aims, we don't want to duplicate or draw capacity away from them. Likewise, if other efforts are aimed at a different group (say, technologists, or professional crisis responders) and take a different approach, we want to do our best to interconnect with them, but also recognize that there may still be a need for this page. Posting asks + offersWe are happy to feature report-ins from folks involved in Harvey response on this page -- you can post them here. If there are specific asks or offers, what works best is to break those out as concrete questions, such as:
