Disaster Risk Management - Preparedness and Response
We respond to disaster situations, i.e. typhoons, floods, and fires. Our volunteers are trained and equipped to conduct rapid assessments and provide emergency relief to affected families throughout the Republic of Palau. We also help the community identify, prepare for, and reduce the impact of disasters.
Services:
Single-Incident Emergency (SIE) Response Program
The Single-Incident Emergency Response program provides immediate and temporary assistance to eligible families facing unexpected emergencies. Requests for help may come through walk-ins, phone calls, or referrals.
Our team conducts an assessment with the head of household to determine eligibility. Based on this assessment, appropriate assistance is provided. If further support is needed, referrals to other services or agencies are made afterwards.
