The National Weather Service has noted that floods cause more damage per year than any other type of weather-related disaster (with a cost of about $8 billion), and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration reports that flooding is second only to heat in the number of deaths it causes each year. https://www.weather.gov/afc/FloodSafety?utm_source=SAMHSA&utm_campaign=cf3a708103-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2025_05_20_04_11_COPY_02&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_-845dbb9bcb-167840245 This month, as we enter summer storm season, the SAMHSA Disaster Technical Assistance Center (DTAC) is sharing information on how to prepare for and cope with floods. The resources below contain information on how to prepare before floods occur, what to do during an evacuation, and how to support behavioral health and well-being, including children’s well-being, following floods. We also share tools for families to help support resilience and recovery after floods. https://www.noaa.gov/jetstream/thunderstorms/flood?utm_source=SAMHSA&utm_campaign=cf3a708103-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2025_05_20_04_11_COPY_02&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_-845dbb9bcb-167840245 Flood Safety This American Red Cross web page covers floods, including links to active financial assistance programs for recent flooding events.
