Diamond FEMA Park, Plaquemines Parish


Nino and I are both working at Diamond and brought Tavo out yesterday to meet the residents (as I was working out there throughout my pregnancy). Nino and his colleagues conducted a hurricane preparedness workshop with the kids. In the photo, you can see the travel trailers behind us...there are 450 in this park and it is still 80% occupied, almost two years after Katrina.

Tavo also met some Diamond folks last week when the summer camp (supported by Save the Children) went on a field trip to the amusement park at City Park in New Orleans. I love this photo!
