As readers will have noted from this blog and website, for the last four years or so I was in that position as both the manager of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.planning.org\/nationalcenters\/hazards\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">APA Hazards Planning Center<\/span><\/a> and project manager for <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.planning.org\/research\/postdisaster\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Planning for Post-Disaster Recovery: Next Generation<\/span><\/a><\/em>, a project that has included the production of an APA <a href=\"https:\/\/www.planning.org\/pas\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Planning Advisory Service<\/span><\/a> Report (No. 576) of the same name. We wish to acknowledge the support of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fema.gov\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Federal Emergency Management Agency<\/span><\/a> through an agreement with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.planning.org\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">APA<\/span><\/a>, which made the project possible. I personally wish to thank the members of the project team who contributed to the report and the project overall, who are noted in the acknowledgments page of the report. Particularly, these include my co-authors: Laurie A. Johnson, Kenneth C. Topping, Allison Boyd, and J. Barry Hokanson.<\/p>\n<p>The report came off the press at the end of last year, and became available online last week on the APA website. With it have come some other resources we were able to create:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A model pre-event recovery ordinance to help communities guide the recovery process<\/li>\n<li>A new resource list of federal programs for assistance with local disaster recovery needs<\/li>\n<li>Still to come, a series of briefing papers on subtopics of disaster recovery (stay tuned)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The purpose of this posting is simply to link interested readers to these resources, which include a free PDF download of the 200-page report, which we believe will set the standard in coming years for best practices in the arena of preparing communities beforehand for potential disasters and for planning afterwards for effective recovery. Please use the link above to access all of these resources.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Jim Schwab<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is always an honor to be able to lead an effort that advances the state of practice with regard to a subject as critical to the nation, and the world, as planning for post-disaster recovery.
