PTRC hosted a three-part workshop series for Disaster Recovery Financial Administration Training. Each part is a standalone training, designed to enhance the understanding of financial management during disaster recovery.

These workshops focus on key topics such as:

  • Managing federal disaster recovery funds
  • Proper documentation for reimbursement
  • Navigating FEMA’s Public Assistance Program
  • Budgeting for long-term recovery

Disaster preparedness and response trainings geared toward local government and community planning professionals are crucial for ensuring that communities can respond effectively to federally declared disasters. These trainings focus on enhancing the knowledge and skills needed to manage financial, operational, and strategic aspects of disaster response.

Participants typically include:

  • Local government finance staff: Trained to handle disaster-related financial management, including funding sources like FEMA, grants, and proper documentation of expenses.
  • Management and elected officials: Learn how to make informed decisions under pressure, ensuring the safety of the community while maintaining transparency and accountability.
  • Planners: Focus on creating disaster-resilient community plans, ensuring long-term recovery strategies, and integrating disaster risk reduction into local policies.
  • Emergency management professionals: Enhance skills in coordinating disaster response efforts, assessing risks, mobilizing resources, and liaising with state and federal agencies.
