loading . . . Disaster Housing Recovery, Research, & Resilience America’s disaster housing framework is broken and in need of major reform. When disasters strike, the lowest-income survivors – including people of color, seniors, people with disabilities, people experiencing homelessness, people with limited English proficiency, and other individuals – are often hardest hit and have the fewest resources and face the longest, steepest path to recovery. Despite the clear need, federal efforts frequently leave these survivors without the assistance needed to get back on their feet and their communities less resilient to future disasters. The result is a disaster housing recovery framework that exacerbates and reinforces racial, income, and accessibility inequities at each stage of response and recovery. As a result, NLIHC works to advance housing justice through disaster housing recovery, resilience, and research. https://nlihc.org/disaster-housing-recovery-research-resilience
