If you’ve lived in Texas for a minute, you know a disaster could be lurking around every corner. But when a disaster happens and turns your life upside down, what do you do? Where do you start, how do you get help, and how do you begin to put your life back together? And what do you need to know if you have a disability?

On Tuesday, September 30, disaster recovery experts will answer these questions and more during the Navigating Disaster Resources in Texas Webinar.

During the webinar, you’ll learn about:

  • The types of disasters and the difference between federal, state, and local disaster declarations
  • The various resources that could be available to help you
  • Overcoming barriers and inequities in the recovery process

The webinar will provide information and awareness so you have the knowledge to get help in recovery.

This webinar is for you if:

  • You want to know ahead of time how to get help if a disaster strikes
  • You’re currently recovering from a recent disaster and you want to know how and when you can get help
