FEMA’s Community Preparedness Webinar-- Introduction to the National Disaster Recovery Framework
November 3, 2011
Join FEMA Tuesday, November 8th to learn how the recently released National Disaster Recovery Framework (NDRF) provides a more inclusive, collaborative and comprehensive approach to addressing disaster recovery issues and challenges. The NDRF defines how we will work together as a nation to best meet the disaster recovery needs of individuals, families, communities, and states.
The NDRF is based on the principle that all emergency management partners, including the private sector, non-profit organizations, faith-based organizations, and individual citizens, as well as local, state, tribal and federal government agencies, have a role to play in the recovery process. In catastrophic scenarios, leveraging Whole Community resources to meet the needs of disaster impacted communities is essential. If you have a role in disaster recovery operations, you don’t want to miss this!
