THIS IS About
Engaging the Whole Community
The Long-Term Recovery Group was established to inform and shape decisions about recovery by bringing together stakeholders of diverse backgrounds and expertise. The Long-Term Recovery Group is made up of smaller working groups, called Recovery Support Functions.
The Recovery Support Functions include representatives of the public and private sectors from across the County and its municipalities. The diversity of membership ensures that varied perspectives are considered to help shape the County’s path forward, toward resilience.
