Fire resources and help.
Others found this information. I'm just one out of many compilers! A lot of my readers are in CA, so I wanted to do something to help. The below resources are all taken from numerous forums, blogs, Mastodon accounts, and otherwise. The below is a mix match of resources. I'll send some disability resources later when I found a good number of them but for now, help out community instead of capital!
If you are outside of CA like I am, you can help people applying for these resources. Again, help community, not capital!
