"When the worst happens, we're there. What I love, is preparing volunteers to respond and working with the community before disasters happen. Installing free smoke alarms is just one way we are making residents more resilient." Meet Miriam Andino, disaster program specialist for the Metro and Southeast Los Angeles Chapter. Miriam works directly with our disaster volunteers in the chapter and with community members to prepare and respond to disasters. One part of Miriam's role is helping to prevent home fires with free smoke alarm installations. #HispanicHeritageMonth #EndHomeFires
