Recovery Resources for the 2025 LA Wildfires
Background
The 2025 Los Angeles wildfires, a series of catastrophic blazes that erupted in early January, caused significant damage and loss of life across the region. The fires, particularly the Palisades and Eaton fires, burned over 57,000 acres, destroyed thousands of structures, and resulted in at least 29 deaths. These fires were largely attributed to a combination of factors, including strong Santa Ana winds and dry vegetation.
