Emergency Update: Catastrophic Flooding in Texas

In response to catastrophic flooding along the Guadalupe River in Central Texas, Direct Relief is connecting with local healthcare providers and search and rescue teams to assess and support urgent medical needs.

At least 32 people, including more than a dozen children, have died in the fast-moving floodwaters, and more remain unaccounted for, including campers along the river.

While emergency operations continue and the full scope of need emerges, Direct Relief has reached out to health centers and clinics across Texas, including those in the affected region.

The organization has also contacted state and national health center associations and engaged with emergency response partners to determine where it can be most impactful.

Direct Relief provides ongoing support to healthcare providers across Texas and stands ready to respond with emergency medical aid and essential supplies as requests are made.

Additional updates will be shared as the situation evolves.
