Following the National Disaster Recovery Framework, the federal family has compiled a multi-layered plan for supporting communities impacted by Hurricane Sandy. It is gratifying to see all these partners working together with local jurisdictions to build a better and stronger New York State.

Recovery Support Strategy

Experience tells us that when the whole community comes together to tackle a challenge - and everyone plays a role - the end result is more effective. New York's recovery has been a deeply inclusive process. We will continue to work toward the ideal of an inclusive, wideranging recovery. The federal family's role in that recovery process is outlined in this Recovery Support Strategy, which provides a compass for our efforts to support New York State on the road to recovery.

Federal Disaster Recovery Coordinator

The efforts of the many agencies and organizations that contributed to "New York Recovers" has produced a comprehensive study of recovery issues and programs. The report's suggested recommendations are extensive, but do not necessarily reflect the specific view of the contributing state agencies.
