3 National VOAD Innovative Recovery Strategies
4 Innovative Recovery Strategies Success Factors & Issues Transparent Partnerships Joint Planning / After Action Access to Funding Recognize Donor Intentions Stafford Act How Block Grant Money is Used Defining the Capacity of the Voluntary Agencies National VOAD Repair & Rebuild Points of Consensus
5 National VOAD Rebuild Points of Consensus Non-Discrimination Provision Agree to Follow Local Building Codes or International Residential Code Additional Code Standards: Energy Efficiency Latest Mitigation Standards ADA Standards Skilled Supervision Respect for Community & Culture Support Case Management Process Safety Standards in Place
6 Rebuild Points of Consensus Some Issues Educating Long Term Recovery Groups Funding to Support Full Implementation of Standards Unaffiliated Volunteer Groups 100% Buy In
7 DR-1843-AK Situation April 28, Rivers flood 236 homes damaged -72 major and destroyed- Over 200 families forced to evacuate their villages Damages in 14 villages over 1,000 miles of river system Extremely limited building season only 82 days from June 11 declaration All parties had to agree on housing plan, start implementation immediately and complete building by September 26th
8 Options Evaluated and Decisions Made 50 applicants: destroyed/ major damage to homes: 4 remote villages Shipping to applicants in 11 additional villages costs to support voluntary agencies vs. contractor Determined: Contracting would cost substantially more than support to volunteer agencies
9 Decisions: Continued: Eagle: FEMA provided for purchase of log cabins, and paid to ship the cabin kits Stevens, Akiak and Tanana: FEMA purchased and shipped materials -=O=- -=O=- FEMA/State provided Invitational Travel to over 200 volunteers
10 Challenges and Unique Aspects No available rentals Extremely short building window Schools are available only for emergency sheltering Scarcity of local construction materials and contractors Materials delivery by air and river system only (barging until Sept. 1) 10 students per school required to keep doors open percent unemployment Subsistence lifestyles
11 Yukon River Spring Floods 2009

25 What Worked Started at the end goal and worked backwards to determine best approach All available resources were evaluated First State-led housing task force meeting was held on June 1 st (11 days before the declaration) Community involvement was critical decision-making happened from the ground up All partners were at the table and engaged to best leverage all authorities and expertise
