Welcome to June, New Orleans. That means hurricane season is officially here and will last through November. Depending on a storm’s severity, the City of New Orleans might issue a mandatory evacuation order. If the City issues a mandatory evacuation, all residents and visitors must leave. If an evacuation is not ordered, it's up to you to decide to evacuate or shelter in place. Take time now to get yourself and your loved ones ready should a storm come our way.

For the May iteration of Neighborhood Spotlight, we are thrilled to introduce you to Ms. Carol Bebelle. "Mama Carol" is the Co-Founder and Exectuive Director of both Efforts of Grace, Inc. and the Ashe' Cultural Arts Center in Central City, New Orleans.
