Hurricane Idalia Disaster Case Management Program
The Disaster Case Management Program works with Long Term Recovery Groups to collaborate with national, state and local government and disaster relief organizations to provide resources to disaster survivors.
Disaster Case Management Program (DCMP) is a federally funded program. DCMP is a time-limited program that involves a partnership between case manager and a disaster survivor to develop and carry out a Disaster Recovery Plan. The partnership provides the client with a single point of contact to facilitate access to a broad range of resources. The process involves an assessment of the client’s verified disaster-caused unmet needs, development of a goal-oriented plan that outlines the steps necessary to achieve recovery, organization and coordination of information on available resources that match the disaster-caused unmet needs, the monitoring of progress towards reaching the recovery plan goals, and when necessary, client advocacy.
Volunteer Florida serves as a conduit of information between voluntary organizations and government. Ensuring a continual flow of information from the State Emergency Response Team and the Joint Field Office. DCMP works with Long Term Recovery Groups to collaborate with national, state and local government and disaster relief organizations to provide resources to disaster survivors.
