Be prepared to respond, recover, and rebuild with confidence. This comprehensive Disaster Response and Recovery Training is designed to help businesses and individuals understand the full process of securing disaster-related assistance and navigating recovery resources effectively. During this workshop, participants will receive step-by-step guidance on registration requirements, the process to receive disaster assistance, and the critical importance of contacting your insurance provider immediately after a disaster. The session will provide a clear overview of FEMA and SBA disaster assistance programs, including eligibility requirements, the application process, and what to do in the event of application denials or requests for reconsideration. Participants will also receive a detailed review of disaster loan application forms, required supporting documentation, and a live walkthrough of the Disaster Loan Application Portal to ensure confidence in completing submissions correctly. This session is ideal for business owners, homeowners, nonprofits, and community leaders seeking to understand disaster recovery resources, avoid common mistakes, and position themselves for timely and successful assistance.
