Please join the Center for Disaster Philanthropy and the Federal Emergency Management Agency for a call on FEMA’s reforms for disaster assistance to help survivors recover faster. This webinar is aimed at helping funders and other philanthropic partners understand the impact of the changes on their giving strategies.

For decades, FEMA has collected feedback from disaster survivors, communities, and stakeholders, including public comments the agency solicited in 2021 on improving the Individual Assistance program. State partners and members of Congress have echoed these concerns and pressed for simpler, more straightforward programs to assist individuals across the country as they recover. These reforms are in response to these requests. You can learn more about the changes here.

This webinar is co-sponsored by the Council on Foundations, Giving Compass, Philanthropy New York, The Funders Network, United Philanthropy Forum, Funders Together to End Homelessness and Philanthropy California.
