The devastating wildfires in the Los Angeles area have displaced thousands of people, many of whom now need help. If you’ve been impacted by the fires, help is available.  

In addition to the list of resources below, some of the IA locals have additional resources, such as members offering spare rooms to other members. If you’re a union member, please check with your local, as they may have additional resources, and fellow members may be offering immediate help.

Congresswoman Judy Chu has links to resources for those affected by the Eaton Fire on her website, including fire updates, evacuation center/staging area locations, areas facing evacuation orders, animal evacuation centers, and road closures.  Here’s the link: https://chu.house.gov/EatonFire

Uber and Lyft Promotions for those affected by the wildfires:

Uber: Residents in Los Angeles County who’ve been ordered to vacate their homes can get a credit from Uber to get to an evacuation site. The $40 will only be valid for trips to an active shelter and by using the code WILDFIRE25.

Lyft: Lyft said it will offer $25 vouchers, valid for two trips, to 500 customers from now until midnight on Jan. 15. Use the code CAFIRERELIEF25 to get the promotion.
