In Paradise, California, after the devastation of the 2018 Camp Fire, many residents are facing insurance challenges due to wildfires. A nonprofit foundation, Rebuild Paradise, is providing $500 'defensible space' grants to help residents make their properties more resilient to wildfires. By offering vouchers for gravel to create a protective perimeter around homes, the foundation aims to assist families in qualifying for insurance discounts and affording private insurance again. The initiative has received significant interest and aims to help 1,000 families, highlighting the ongoing struggles facing residents in the area.
