About

This resource provides information about Project: Camp, an initiative whose mission involves providing care for children, relief for families, and resilience for communities by coordinating key organizations and stakeholders to include children in disaster response plans. The pop-up camps offer a safe place with necessary resources like food, water, and medical care. Efforts focus on identifying local organizations that can support successful pop-up camps by offering a site, volunteers, connections with families, and introductions to funding sources. This resource is related to a PPN Podcast titled "Campfire Conversations."
