&lt;p&gt;In September, Florida took an extremely hard hit from Hurricane Irma, sustaining considerable damage from Key West to Jacksonville.  &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
In an effort to help with the rebuilding process, Geographic Solutions partnered with the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity to develop and launch the &lt;a href="https://disasterrecovery.employflorida.com/vosnet/Default.aspx"&gt;Hurricane Irma Recovery Jobs Portal&lt;/a&gt;. The portal provides direct links to recovery and cleanup jobs across the state. &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Florida's Governor, Rick Scott, weighed in through a &lt;a href="http://www.floridajobs.org/news-center/DEO-Press/2017/09/26/recovery-job-opportunities-available-for-florida-families"&gt;press release&lt;/a&gt;, citing the portal's ease of use and encouraging families and business owners to take advantage of the relief website. &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The portal also gives visitors access to résumé creation tools, Disaster Unemployment Assistance applications, and education and training resources. &lt;/p&gt;
