State Representative Berny Jacques Visits First Contact
We’re incredibly grateful to State Representative Berny Jacques for visiting First Contact today! It was an absolute honor to share our vision for disaster support services—especially for seniors and caregivers—as we continue to recover and rebuild from Hurricanes Helene and Milton. 💙
With Rep. Jacques’ support and advocacy, we’re championing connections with vital resources to ensure no one is left behind after surviving a community disaster. Together, we’re creating a stronger, more resilient Florida! 🌴💪
Thank you, Representative Berny Jacques, for your leadership and commitment to our community. Your partnership makes all the difference! 🙌
At First Contact, we believe that everyone deserves to feel safe and supported—especially during times of crisis. That’s why we’re excited to announce the launch of a brand-new resource on our website: Disaster Preparedness for Older Adults and Caregivers.
This dedicated webpage is designed to help older adults, individuals with disabilities, and their caregivers feel confident and ready when emergencies strike. From hurricanes and floods to power outages and evacuation scenarios, our resource hub offers practical, accessible tools to plan ahead and stay protected.
We were thrilled to welcome Pinellas County Board of County Commissioners Chair Brian Scott and Coleen Chaney to First Contact today!
Happy National 211 Day!
At First Contact, we are always seeking to connect with organizations that are making a meaningful impact in the community.
The start of a new year offers a fresh opportunity to focus on what truly matters: your well-being.
