Western Bureau: What began as an emergency response to disaster is now evolving into a broader movement for resilience and self-sufficiency in Westmoreland. At the centre of that effort is Rosa Young, a Negril-based businesswoman who has been coordinating relief efforts with Global Medic and a wide network of local stakeholders. “I have been helping Westmoreland since October 29 [the day after Hurricane Melissa impacted Jamaica] to do outreach for my community,” Young said. “I’ve been working with the councillors to help distribute food kits and filters.”
