As the flood season advances, assistance will then move into a clean-up phase as floodwaters recede. The Salvation Army will typically work with local response teams to supply clean-up kits, as well as gift cards for other necessities like cleaning supplies and gasoline for generators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interviews with Salvation Army leadership are available.
