To meet the growing need for mobile and flexible essential services for all residents, Orange County has launched the Help Now Mobile Unit. This first of its kind mobile unit ensures equitable resilience for all Orange County residents, by quickly rolling out community aid to impacted neighborhoods. The Help Now Mobile Unit has the flexibility to provide tools and services to residents in circumstances ranging from extreme weather emergencies to community assistance.
Orange County’s Emergency Management, in partnership with the Office of Sustainability and Resilience, was successfully awarded the Duke Energy Foundation’s State Strategic Impact Grant Program, providing seed money to help fund the Help Now Mobile Unit.
