About This Podcast

In late September of 2024, a hurricane landed in the Appalachian mountains. The devastation was extraordinary, as were the people that headed into the storm to help. This is a series lifting up first-person perspectives of those who lived through, served and saved their communities in the aftermath of Helene, and who were educated in the community college system.
