Hurricane Laura is barreling towards the Texas-Louisiana border after intensifying into a Category 4 storm Wednesday. Unsurvivable storm surge and devastating winds are expected to cause catastrophic damage in some areas. In Beaumont, Texas, where the storm is projected to make landfall early Thursday morning, residents remain under mandatory evacuation orders. On this episode of the podcast, we speak with Lauren Rahe, the Executive Director of the Ubi Caritas Health Ministries in Beaumont, TX about how her community is preparing and what health needs she anticipates arising in the storm's aftermath.
