DHSEM to host Contractor Connects event in Las Vegas, NM
DHSEM’s Disaster Case Management team will be hosting Contractor Connects, a community repair and rebuilding expo, on August 3, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at W Las Vegas High School, 157 Moreno Street, Las Vegas, NM 87701.
This free, family-friendly, and open to the public event will connect residents impacted by the Hermit’s Peak/Calf Canyon (HPCC) wildfires to contractors licensed by the state of New Mexico. During the event, residents will meet with licensed contractors, hear about available services, learn about processes and permits, and take the first steps for rebuilding and repairing their property. Flood cleanup contractors will be among those in attendance.
In addition to getting help finding contractors, residents will be able to enroll in Disaster Case Management for support with navigating the recovery process. Disaster case managers and state partner agencies will be on site to assist residents who attend.
Residents impacted by the fire who are unable to attend the event can enroll in Disaster Case Management by calling 505-670-4662. Learn more about Contractor Connects here.
