National DisasterRecovery FrameworkSEE FOOTNOTECHAPTER3. PURPOSE OF THE FRAMEWORK.The National Disaster Recovery Framework (NDRF)defines how Federal agencies will moreeffectively organize and operate to utilizeexisting resources to promote effectiverecovery and support States, Tribes and otherjurisdictions affected by a disaster. It is alsowritten for a larger audience of non-FederalGovernment executives, private sector andnongovernmental organization (N G O)leaders, emergency managers, communitydevelopment professionals and disasterrecovery practitioners 1 .Recovery begins with pre-disasterpreparedness and includes a wide range ofplanning activities. The NDRF clarifies theroles and responsibilities for stakeholdersin recovery, both pre- and post-disaster. Itrecognizes that recovery is a continuum andthat there is opportunity within recovery. Italso recognizes that when a disaster occurs,it impacts some segments of the populationmore than others.The ability of a community to accelerate therecovery process begins with its efforts inpre-disaster preparedness, mitigation andrecovery capacity building. These effortsresult in a resilient community with animproved ability to withstand, respondto and recover from disasters. Timelydecisions in response to disaster impacts cansignificantly reduce recovery time and cost.The NDRF describes key principles andsteps for community recovery planning1.The NDRF is not intended to, and does not, create any right orbenefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity,by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies,or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person.and implementation. It promotes a processin which the impacted community fullyengages and considers the needs of all itsmembers. A key element of the process isthat the impacted community assumes theleadership in developing recovery prioritiesand activities that are realistic, well-plannedand clearly communicated.The NDRF advances the concept that recoveryencompasses more than the restoration of acommunity’s physical structures to its predisasterconditions. Of equal importance isproviding a continuum of care to meet theneeds of the affected community memberswho have experienced the hardships offinancial, emotional or physical impactsas well as positioning the community tomeet the needs of the future. The NDRFalso highlights the importance of disasterrecovery activities that promote sustainabilitypractices. These practices may reducecommunity vulnerability to recurrentdisasters. Meeting these various needs— through strengthening the health andhuman services, social fabric, educationalsystem, environmental sustainability, culturalresources and economic vitality — serves toenhance the overall resiliency of the entirecommunity as the recovery progresses.RESOURCESThe National Disaster Recovery Framework (NDRF)is a guide to promote effective recovery— it is a concept of operations and notPURPOSE OF THE FRAMEWORKfootnoteEnd of footnote.Page 5
