CROYDON, PA — Many local, regional, and state agencies will be on hand Tuesday and Wednesday from 2 p.m. - 7 p.m. to aid residents from communities severely impacted by the July 12 flooding disaster.

Bristol, Croydon, and Bensalem experienced extremely high rainfall and flash flooding in the 100-year magnitude event. Some residents are still displaced, and many are contending with upheaval and property damage.

Agencies will come together at Keystone Elementary School — located at 1800 Keystone Ave in Croydon — to assist and speak with Bucks and Philadelphia residents through this county outreach initiative in collaboration with PEMA, the Bucks County Intermediate Unit, and other groups.
