Many people are still living in shelters and depending on help from the Red Cross. People from Mid-Michigan are continuing to help.</p>
																		<p>Tony Lasher, the executive director of the East Central Bay chapter of the Red Cross arrived in Houston last night. He'll be there for at least three weeks as he helps Texans get back on their feet.</p>
																							<p>This summer has been a busy time for the Red Cross and it's volunteers.</p>
																							<p>'When you consider the wild fires out west, then you have these three major hurricanes, that pretty much decimated most of the southern Atlantic and Gulf it's pretty extraordinary," Lasher said.</p>
																							<p>Recovery efforts are draining the energy of first responders and volunteers. That's why the Red Cross is rotating in new teams of workers.</p>
																							<p>"The deployments are usually pretty grueling. We're talking 13-14 hour days for most people. so they try to keep us fresh," Lasher said.</p>
																							<p>He says Mid-Michigan has been well represented, with about 25 volunteers helping with hurricane recovery efforts. But more are needed.</p>

																			<p>"There's been a great strain; not only on the Red Cross but all responding agencies, there's a great workforce strain because of the unique nature of what's going on," said Lasher.</p>
																							<p>And it's not too late to sign up at the Red Cross in Flint or Saginaw and learn how to help at disaster scenes.</p>
																							<p>"We can get the people set up for some training because there really is a workforce stretch right now," said Lasher.</p>
																							<p>A lot of us who haven't been able to help directly have been able to lend a financial hand.</p>
																							<p>"The people of Flint, the people of Mid-Michigan have been phenomenal, especially through your (ABC12) telethon," said Lasher.</p>
																							<p>Three Red Cross emergency response vehicles from Mid-Michigan are being used to help hurricane victims. Two are in Texas and the other is in Florida.<br/></p>
