Pre-Disaster Mitigation Program

The Pre-Disaster Mitigation Program is a federal initiative designed to reduce the impact of disasters before they happen. It focuses on funding projects that enhance community resilience, such as strengthening infrastructure, improving emergency response systems, and educating the public about risks. By investing in preparedness now, the program aims to minimize damage, save lives, and reduce costs when disasters strike. Essentially, it’s about being proactive rather than reactive, ensuring communities can better withstand natural disasters and recover more quickly when they occur.
