Condita Duplessis (TOP) applies a perm to granddaughter Kayla Reddick's hair
in preparation for her kindergarten graduation tomorrow as other family members
and neighbors
gather in her trailer in the FEMA Diamond travel trailer park May
22, 2008 in Port Sulphur, Louisiana. Six people live in her trailer. The FEMA
federal trailer parks that house many Hurricane Katrina victims are set to close
May 31 prompting fears that people will be forced into residences they can't
afford or will be left homeless. Most residents will receive a federal subsidy
to move to apartments but affordable rental housing is scarce in some areas
including New Orleans and Baton Rouge. | |
