A Disaster Recovery Center will open Monday in the Altadena area, the third such center to open in the wake of the Southland’s destructive and deadly wildfires.
The center will be located at 540 W. Woodbury Road. It will join the existing centers operating at the UCLA Research Park West, 10850 W. Pico Blvd., Los Angeles, and at the Pasadena City College Community Education Center, 3035 E. Foothill Blvd.
The centers are open from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily.
County officials said the Pasadena and Altadena centers will both be open next week, however, beginning Feb. 1, the Pasadena center will close, with all of those services shifted to the new Altadena location.
-The centers are designed to be one-stop-shop locations for people impacted by the fires to access a range of services and resources.
A host of county departments are represented at the centers, along with state agencies such as the Department of Motor Vehicles, Department of Insurance and Department of Social Services. Federal Emergency Management Agency staff are also at the locations, along with representatives of the U.S. Small Business Administration and Social Security Administration.
