Disaster Recovery Reform Act

The Disaster Recovery Reform Act (DRRA) is a U.S. law aimed at improving the nation’s ability to respond to and recover from disasters. It emphasizes the importance of preparedness and resilience, encouraging investments in mitigation efforts that reduce future disaster impacts. The DRRA reshapes how federal disaster assistance is provided, streamlining processes and ensuring that funds are used effectively to help communities recover. It also promotes better collaboration between federal, state, and local governments to enhance overall disaster response and recovery strategies, ultimately aiming to protect lives and property more effectively in the face of calamities.
