Nonprofits Encouraged to Comment on National Disaster Recovery Framework Draft

Nonprofits are encouraged to weigh in on the recently released draft of the National Disaster Recovery Framework (NDRF).

The goal of the framework is to outline pre and post disaster responsibilities at every stakeholder level. The NDRF falls under the responsibility of President Obama’s Long Term Disaster Recovery Working Group, which was created last fall to oversee gathering information from every stakeholder to provide core values and ideas that would shape the NDRF.

The NDRF draft does recognize the role of the nonprofit sector however your organization may have further ideas that need to be incorporated about how nonprofits should be involved throughout a long disaster recovery.

Public comments are due next week by February 26 and can be submitted by going to the following website.

Full details on the submission process are also available.
