FEMA is seeking feedback from whole community partners on the draft “Achieving Equitable Recovery: A Post-Disaster Guide for Local Officials.” An open comment period is now open and will end on Wednesday, March 15.
This guide supports local officials in their efforts to identify needs, establish critical partnerships, leverage new opportunities, conduct strategic public engagement, and make a strong case for funding in an equitable manner.
FEMA will host a series of 60-minute webinar sessions to provide an overview of the draft guide and gather feedback from whole community partners. The sessions will include facilitated discussions with stakeholders to help improve the existing draft. To attend one of the webinars, register in advance by clicking one of the links below:
