partner series: hurricane recovery

In the aftermath of Hurricane Ian (2022), Florida's Paradise Coast experienced significant damage, prompting the closure of beaches, businesses, and other local establishments to focus on rebuilding. As the recovery progressed, many visitors were uncertain if it was safe or appropriate to return under the conditions. To address the concerns, a multi-part series was created—featuring local businesses sharing their recovery stories and extending personal invitations to rediscover the region’s restored beauty and vibrant offerings. Rather than focusing on the damage caused by the storm, the series highlights the resilience and hopeful spirit of Florida's Paradise Coast and those who call it home.
