SUPERSTORM SANDY RELIEF: CARC RECEIVED SANDY HOMEOWNER/RENTER ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (SHRAP) FUNDS TO PROVIDE RELIEF TO THOSE AFFECTED BY SUPERSTORM SANDY. THESE FUNDS WERE DESIGNATED TO ASSIST WITH MORTGAGE PAYMENTS, RENT AND RENT ARREARS, UTILITY PAYMENTS AND BY HELPING TO REPLACE ESSENTIAL HOUSEHOLD ITEMS DAMAGED OR DESTROYED BY THE STORM. CARC WAS ALSO AWARDED FUNDS FROM THE AMERICAN RED CROSS TO ADDRESS THE NEEDS OF COMMUNITY MEMBERS IMPACTED BY SANDY WHOSE SHELTER AND BASIC LIVING NEEDS WOULD HAVE OTHERWISE GONE UNMET.
