Education and Outreach specialists to home improvement and hardware
stores in or near the communities affected by the June tornadoes and
severe storms. These specialists can offer people tips about
repairing, rebuilding, and improving their homes so these dwellings
can better withstand severe weather.

For their first stops, starting Friday, Sept. 8, specialists will be
at the following locations:

THE HOME DEPOT

4100 O’Ferrell St.

Hattiesburg, MS 39402

possible future disasters, not just people affected by the June
tornadoes and storms.
