New challenges...lost FEMA trailers

I just talked with Matt on the phone and he shared some very disturbing news. All those displaced by Katrina in Bayou La Batre and living in FEMA trailers are being told that they must give up their trailers within 30 days, though they were originally told they had 18 months. Now where will they go?
Most people including Robin, the lady we have been assisting have no where to live. She is still waiting for the resources to rebuild. She told Matt it looks like she will need to pitch a tent on her front lawn once she loses her FEMA trailer. Once again these wonderful people are forced to make very stressful decisions.
It makes me very upset.
There was also an article in the news on this which you can read at the link below.
