<p>
<p>Monterey &gt;&gt; Hundreds of miles away from the eye of the storm, a Monterey couple has created a website geared toward helping the disabled population impacted by Hurricane Harvey. And now they&#x2019;re doing the same for those affected by Hurricane Irma. </p><p>Dr. Sarah Blackstone and Harvey Pressman &#x2013; the former an international expert in the field of augmentative and alternative communication and the latter an educator who has run employment projects for people with disabilities &#x2013; are behind <a href="http://https://harveyaac.recovers.org/">https://harveyaac.recovers.org/</a> The web portal  enables people with disabilities who can&#x2019;t use their natural speech, but instead rely on alternative communication, to request and connect with the help they need. </p>
<p>

<p>
<p>&#x201c;Undoubtedly these are some of the most vulnerable people on the planet, especially during a disaster and then they&#x2019;re often separated from those that help them communicate &#x2013; many have physical and cognitive challenges,&#x201d; said Blackstone. &#x201c;So we wanted to do something.&#x201d; </p><p>As a team, Blackstone, 73 and Pressman, 81 are unique because they are also members of Community Emergency Response Volunteers (CERV) of the Monterey Peninsula, an organization that promotes and sustains preparedness, readiness and response to emergencies and critical events. That association, along with their decades-long involvement in the field of alternative communication, provided the right background to help the extremely at risk disabled population in Houston &#x2013; and now in Florida and surrounding affected areas. </p>
<p>

<p>
<p>When Hurricane Katrina hit over ten years ago, the couple started a relief effort there. Then, during the summer of 2016, the Community Emergency Response Volunteers (CERV) of the Monterey Peninsula launched and managed MontereyCo.RECOVERS.org in response to Soberanes Fire recovery efforts. </p><p>Blackstone was recently acknowledged by the Red Cross as its &#x201c;Disaster Services Hero&#x201d; for instituting the system that produced rapid response to the immediate needs of families and individuals impacted by the fire.</p>
<p>
<!-- end articleparagraph1.pbo --><!-- start articleparagraph1.pbo -->
<p>
<p>Now she&#x2019;s applying that same system through the national site to serve the needs of the severely disabled impacted by Hurricane Harvey. The site set up to help Irma victims also uses the United States Society for Augmentative and Alternative Communications (USSAAC) <a href="recovers.org">recovers.org</a> platform.</p><p>&#x201c;It was a powerful tool,&#x201d; said Blackstone about the <a href="MontereyCo.Recovers.org">MontereyCo.Recovers.org</a> site that helped victims of the Soberanes Fire. &#x201c;So with the USSAAC and those of us working on the CERV, we thought &#x2018;What if this local expertise and experience could be applied to an event localized (in Houston) but responded to with donations nationally?&#x2019;&#x201d;</p>

<p>The site allows users to submit needs, to donate and volunteer. There&#x2019;s also an &#x201c;adopt a family&#x201d; option.</p><p>&#x201c;Everybody is kind of vetted,&#x201d; said Blackstone, noting that once a need is submitted it&#x2019;s responded to within hours with an email. So far she&#x2019;s received 19 requests for help. While the site focuses on helping restore the means to communicate, Blackstone said it has also served to refer people to other needed resources in the hurricane&#x2019;s impacted areas. </p><p>While many of the requests have been submitted by family members, a disabled person can submit their request directly using a computer or one of the many special devices created to support those with disabilities.</p>
<p>
<!-- end articleparagraph1.pbo --><!-- start articleparagraph1.pbo -->
<p>
<p>While the site&#x2019;s other organizers are people who live in Texas and Louisiana, Blackstone and Pressman attributed the quick response they get to fill requested needs to the relationships they&#x2019;ve established with emergency services organizations and others over the years.</p><p>&#x201c;We have a deeper network because of what we did with Katrina and we get a pretty quick response,&#x201d; said Pressman, noting the recent matched $10,000 donation that will go toward special adapted iPads for kids with autism.</p><p>It all makes their job to assist those in need of help communicating a little easier. </p>

<p>
<p>&#x201c;Whenever there&#x2019;s a big disaster or catastrophe, the two groups that take it on the chin are the elderly and disabled &#x2013; they&#x2019;re people who can&#x2019;t talk to you, who may have had a caregiver &#x2013; they&#x2019;re very vulnerable people,&#x201d; said Blackstone, also noting that so many people with disabilities are also impoverished. &#x201c;So it&#x2019;s one thing after another &#x2013; and whenever everybody else is hurting they are not thought of.</p><p>&#x201c;But we learned from Katrina and the Big Sur folks &#x2013; if somebody has lost their home and has any hint that&#x2019;s somebody out there that cares, it matters to those people.&#x201d;</p>
