Task 7: Develop Post-Disaster Recovery Plan

Steps in Task 7

  1. Develop plan.
  2. Discuss plan and strategies with coordinating organizations.
  3. Share plan and strategies with state emergency management agencies.

The last task for the leadership team is to develop a post-disaster recovery plan based on the suggestions emerging from the second session of the forum. In the plan, people should be able to easily distinguish the activities that need to take place before the hazard happens and after disaster occurs. They should also know the priorities of the various activities. After completing a draft of the plan, the organizing team needs to share it with all local officials and coordinating organizations, tweaking the plan as necessary to gain and/or maintain their support. Having the support of local officials is an important key to receiving support from the coordinating organizations. Note that if the organizing team consists of representatives of local government and coordinating organizations, and if branches of local government and all coordinating organizations are well represented at the forum, then it is likely that the post-disaster recovery plan will be accepted. The final step in Task 7 is to share the plan with state emergency management agencies.
