Building Community Resilience Together
Disasters impact entire communities and recovery takes all of us.
United Way North Central Florida invites community members, organizations, businesses, and local leaders to join the launch of a new collaborative initiative serving Bradford County and Union County.
Bradford and Union counties are coming together to form a Community Organization Active in Disaster (COAD) and Long-Term Recovery Group (LTRG). These coalitions bring neighbors, nonprofits, businesses, faith communities, and local leaders together to coordinate disaster response and recovery—before, during, and after a crisis.
