From the website:

The East Biloxi Coordination and Relief Center was established within days of Hurricane Katrina with a mission to meet the needs of local residents for
immediate relief and support.

Founded by William F. Stallworth, Biloxi Councilman for Ward 2, with a modest start-up grant from Oxfam America, the center immediately set out to serve as a de facto �town hall� for Wards 1 and 2.

EBCRC houses various outside voluntary organizations that had come to Biloxi
to assist the community and serves as a clearinghouse for information, relief supplies, and voluntary assistance including house cleaning, mud-outs, and legal services.

EBCRC is in the process of converting itself to become a Community Development
Corporation, and is currently focused on a comprehensive survey and data collection with local residents as input to a rebuilding plan for East Biloxi.
