Year after year, thousands of people suffer the severe consequences of the impact of hurricanes in eastern North Carolina.\u00a0In conversation with members of the\u00a0Enlace Latino\u00a0NC\u00a0team, dozens of people in the Latino and Latina community who were\u00a0affected by hurricanes Florence and Matthew spoke about how language barriers and the lack of accessible information hampered prevention and recovery efforts.<\/p>\n

After listening to the needs of the community, Enlace Latino NC has launched\u00a0Prep\u00e1rate NC<\/a>, an online guide with resources for the hurricane season in Spanish.<\/p>\n

More than 1 million people in the Latino and Latina community live in North Carolina, making up about 10% of the state\u2019s population.\u00a0Prep\u00e1rate NC\u2019s purpose is to provide practical and educational tools in Spanish to help mitigate the great risks that the\u00a0Latino and Latina community faces from the impact of\u00a0hurricanes.<\/p>\n

To guarantee the quality of the information, the site relied on official documents from federal and state entities, as well as interviews with local authorities and community leaders with experience in assisting during natural disasters.<\/p>\n

The guide provides resources designed to be useful before, during, and after hurricanes hit.<\/p>\n

For the\u00a0period leading up to<\/a>\u00a0the impact of the hurricane,\u00a0Prep\u00e1rate NC offers practical recommendations including what to do to reduce damage to the home<\/a>,\u00a0the most convenient evacuation routes, and\u00a0how to purchase insurance that will save thousands of dollars on repairs<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Relating to\u00a0the moment of the hurricane\u2019s impact<\/a>, information includes\u00a0how to get to the shelters<\/a>,\u00a0the safest way to act in case of a power outage<\/a>, and\u00a0what to do if the streets are flooded<\/a>.<\/p>\n

For\u00a0the post-storm stage<\/a>,\u00a0Prep\u00e1rate NC\u00a0has information\u00a0on returning home safely<\/a>,\u00a0repairing the home<\/a>,\u00a0collecting flood insurance<\/a>,\u00a0accessing temporary housing<\/a>, and\u00a0seeking assistance from both the state and non-governmental organizations<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Enlace Latino NC<\/a>\u00a0is based in Raleigh, NC.<\/p>\n
