Recovery Resources

The time to consult them is now — before you need to know the contents.

The Recovery Diva shared this posting: From the FEMA website: The Community Recovery Management Toolkit (CRMT) is a compilation of guidance, case studies, tools, and training to assist local communities in managing long-term recovery post-disaster. This toolkit is managed by Community Planning and Capacity Building Recovery Support Function (CPCB RSF).

The time to look at these is now, before the winds blow and the earth breaks. The disaster response consumes people and then — it comes time for the recovery effort. Having a bit of knowledge packed away in one's brain before you are forced into the maelstrom of recovery would be a good thing.
