On May 16, 2025, an EF3 tornado struck St. Louis, causing devastating damage across the region and impacting many of our neighbors, families, and communities. In response, the St. Louis Integrated Health Network (IHN) has created this Recovery Resource Hub to support those affected and connect individuals with opportunities to help.
This site is a centralized collection of local resources—for those in need of support and for those looking to assist. Whether you’re seeking housing, food, health care, or ways to volunteer or donate, you’ll find reliable, up-to-date information here.
IHN remains deeply committed to serving our community—during times of crisis and beyond. Please check back regularly as we continue to update this hub with new resources and opportunities to support one another. Together, we can help rebuild a stronger, more connected St. Louis.
