Ohio Disaster Response & Recovery Situation Update-Memorial Day Tornadoes

Situation Update – Memorial Day 2019 Tornadoes (Report provided by John Pyron, Director of LSS Disaster Services)

Over 20 not-for-profit and faith-based organizations are collaborating with local, state, and federal government partners to form and coordinate a community-based long-term recovery group in the Miami Valley in response to the Memorial Day tornado outbreak. The Miami Valley Long-Term Recovery Operations Group (MVLTRG) elected leadership on July 30th and will formalize its bylaws next week. The group is working to develop coordination mechanisms to ensure access to and effective delivery of resources to address disaster-caused needs within impacted communities in the Miami Valley. The group recently formalized its structure and also launched a website.

Sequence Of Disaster Assistance

 

 

The above graphic helps depict the sequence of assistance to those impacted by disasters. Not all agencies fill every single step. Instead, it's a team effort to provide for every person, every step of the way. LSS Disaster Services, via John Pyron, works with all of the various entities to provide the assistance needed, when it is needed. LSS Disaster Services will be in this community for the long haul until every need is met.
