## Resource

One year after the deadly Kerrville floods that took 119 lives—including 28 at Camp Mystic—Texas is reckoning with systemic failures in youth camp safety. Governor Abbott honored the victims, reading their names aloud, as investigations revealed critical gaps: no evacuation plan, untrained staff, and dangerous locations in floodplains. The Guadalupe River’s catastrophic surge destroyed homes and shattered communities, becoming one of the deadliest inland floods in U.S. history. In response, Texas enacted the Heaven’s Twenty-Seven Camp Safety Act, banning cabins in flood zones and requiring emergency systems, while launching a grant program for early-warning sirens. As the state moves forward, the memory of those lost drives home the urgent need for preparedness and accountability.
