In the aftermath of the Eaton Fire that ravaged Altadena, California, the community shows remarkable resilience. Neighbors become first responders, aiding one another after the disaster. Individuals like Chumi Paul rally the local residents to organize community meals and gatherings to plan for rebuilding. While homes were destroyed, the spirit of community remains strong, extending even to affected places of worship, which are already starting to resume services. This illustrates how the collective effort and mutual support can help a community recover from adversity.
"It always happens this way after a disaster: people help each other. Many of the first responders are not wearing a uniform; they're neighbors."
"Chumi Paul and her neighbors have begun planning how they might rebuild: with community meals and regular get-togethers."
"The idea of home extends beyond four walls and a roof into the community, and places of worship also suffered in the Eaton Fire."
"Some spiritual sanctuaries have already restarted services and are on the path toward rebuilding."
