Disaster Relief: Providing shelter, food, and water. Mississippi’s capital city entered a fourth day on Thursday with little or no water flowing from faucets, authorities were scrambling to get a failing water treatment plant plagued by decades of deferred maintenance back online. This comes on top of a boil water notice in effect for more than a month – has upended life in the city of roughly 150,000 residents, where schools were shuttered this week, businesses are forced to adapt and people have had to wait in long lines for bottled water they can use to drink, cook or brush their teeth. Heavy rain and flash floods drenched Mississippi, prompting rescue operations, closures and evacuations Wednesday including dozens of residents at a nursing home in the central part of the state. Rain has pummeled the central and southern parts of the state for the last three days. Flash flood warnings were in effect for several areas from Jackson, the state capital, to Meridian and southward to Laurel and Prentiss, with numerous reports of flooding Wednesday. First responders in the central Mississippi county also said they were working to rescue people from their homes. 

Providing water to Jackson residents with no water to drink, cook or bath in. Jackson, Mississippi residents have been without water for two weeks, since the winter storm hit in February. The communities do not know when the water will return and the water crisis is far from over. Jackson has been on a boil-water advisory since February 23. Meanwhile, some residents are still experiencing little to no water pressure in parts of the city. The aging infrastructure, has delayed full access to water. Jackson currently does not have the funds to adequately fix damaged infrastructure he said, explaining, "We need long-term support to deal with this issue that has gone without being addressed sufficiently for decades."
