1. National Disaster Recovery Framework in Action Aligning with our State, Local and Tribal Partners

2. National Disaster Recovery Framework Background:  Post-Katrina Emergency Management Reform Act of 2006  Presidential Policy Directive 8 (PPD 8), National Preparedness, March 30, 2011 2 The National Disaster Recovery Framework (NDRF) concept was the result of two distinct policy directives: The National Disaster Recovery Framework (NDRF) is not dependant on the Stafford Act or require a Major Disaster Declaration:  The NDRF may be leveraged for non- Stafford act events/incidents  Example is the current drought currently impacting 39 states where an FDRC has been appointed from USDA The National Disaster Recovery Framework (NDRF) has been widely implemented across the region since it’s inception in 2011…examples:  Vermont and New York 2011 (Irene)  CT, NJ, NY and RI 2012 (Sandy)  AET currently in process for recent winter storm in Vermont

3. National Disaster Recovery Framework Core Principles:  Individual and Family Empowerment  Leadership and Local Primacy  Pre-Disaster Recovery Planning  Partnerships and Inclusiveness  Public Information  Unity of Effort  Timeliness and Flexibility  Resilience and Sustainability  Psychological and Emotional Recovery 3

4. National Disaster Recovery Framework Three Key Elements Key Element #1: Leadership at every level  Local Disaster Recovery Managers  State Disaster Recovery Coordinator  Federal Disaster Recovery Coordinator Key Element #2: Pre- & Post-Disaster Recovery Planning  Enables effective coordination of recovery activities and expedites a unified recovery effort  Forms the foundation for allocating resources and provides the benchmark for progress Key Element #3: Recovery Support Functions (RSFs) 4

5. “The NDRF enhances the concept that recovery encompasses more than the restoration of a community’s physical structures to its pre-disaster conditions.” NDRF vs. NRF Recovery Continuum

15. Questions?

16. How Rapid Response Fits Responding to Disasters is a REQUIRED Activity (WIA and WIOA): WIA 101(38); WIOA 3(51) Full complement of allowable services not completely defined in regulations There appears to be flexibility with how Rapid Response should be involved Presumably at least those allowable in a mass layoff Should be coordinated with FEMA and the State EMA Co-location with these agencies should be a priority 16

17. Some Potentially Allowable Activities  Purchase/use of mobile one-stop centers  Setting up of temporary transition/career centers  Participation in state/regional planning activities/ exercises/etc.  Support information gathering, etc. for Disaster NEG/ NDWG  Assist workers in accessing DUA and other benefits and services  Assist employers in reopening  Provision of additional assistance funding to local areas  And “other emergency assistance adapted to the particular disaster” 17
