The Commission’s budget has money for Emergency Assistance.
At yesterday’s meeting the Commission authorized parish administrator Eric Bryant, in her discretion, to fund $30 thousand to the Shreveport Volunteer Network and to an agency for housing assistance.
The Commission has a history of providing emergency assistance to Caddo citizens when catastrophic events have occurred and this authorization vote is just another example of the Commission’s good service to Caddo citizens.
