We are living through unprecedented times. Many of us are already feeling anxious or stressed as we live through this pandemic. The threat of a wildfire will only add to an already stressful situation. Be available to family, friends, or neighbors who may need someone to talk to. If you have a need, reach out to family members, friends, or professionals.
