Making Recovery More Resilient: Building the Partnerships That Strengthen Communities Before, During, and After Disaster
As National Preparedness Month comes to a close, the work of strengthening communities is just beginning. Preparedness is not an end state. It is the foundation for the relationships, partnerships, and local capacity that help communities recover, adapt, and emerge stronger after disasters. When disasters strike, communities often receive significant support during the response phase. Yet long-term recovery can take years and depends on far more than funding alone. Join leaders from across the nonprofit, philanthropic, business, and community sectors for a conversation about what truly drives successful recovery outcomes and what comes next after preparedness efforts are underway. Drawing on lessons from local recovery leaders, national organizations, philanthropy, and private-sector partners, this webinar will explore how communities can strengthen preparedness, recovery, and resilience through stronger partnerships, coordinated action, and investments in existing community systems. Participants will hear practical examples from communities navigating long-term recovery, learn how public-private partnerships strengthen local capacity, and discover opportunities to support the organizations, networks, and recovery ecosystems that communities depend on before the next disaster occurs. Whether you are a corporate social responsibility leader, foundation executive, emergency manager, nonprofit professional, government official, or community leader, this conversation will provide actionable insights into helping communities recover stronger and become more resilient. Because while National Preparedness Month may end on September 30, the work of building resilient communities continues every day through communication, coordination, collaboration, and cooperation

From SC VOAD:
Across the country, people are increasingly concerned about disasters. Yet many still do not feel prepared for what comes next.
That challenge raises an important question for community leaders, nonprofits, businesses, foundations, and government agencies: What helps some communities recover and emerge stronger while others struggle for years?
As National Preparedness Month comes to a close, join us for a multi-sector conversation bringing together leaders from across the nonprofit, philanthropic, business, and recovery sectors to explore that question.
