Catholic Charities is proud of our work over the last 12 months helping Nashvillians recover from the devastating tornadoes that tore through North Nashville, East Nashville, Mt. Juliet, Hermitage, and Donelson in 2020.

We are pleased to share some stories from staff who worked on many aspects of the recovery – from food assistance to helping residents rebuild their home to providing trauma counseling – as they reflected on what happened in the immediate aftermath and the work that continues to this day.

The videos below are from:

• Wendy Overlock, Coordinator of the Loaves and Fishes community meals program
• LaShunda White, North Nashville Outreach Case Manager
• Kamrie Reed, LCSW, who provides trauma counseling
