This newsletter is a compilation of recent disaster ~things~ that I think are cool, important, or otherwise of interest to people who are intrigued with disaster (broadly defined).
Unrelated, related: housing crisis. FEMA IA applicants qualifying for HUD housing. HUD is not tequired to assure itself that disaster housing is RECIEVED while simultaneously “claiming” Coordinated Entry (HEAT scores) are the DEI of housing access. I am having difficulty rationale to HUD ZERO ACCOUNTABILITY where disaster housing “awards” are mere suggestions to local county housing authorities. WA State 56% increase homelessness 2023-2024 per HUD NATIONAL PIT 2024. While no FEMA HUD employs accountability to applicants or FEMA IA HUD housing award recipients to known lessons learned poor & housing. Coordinated Entry HEAT scores make no effort “disaster related” housing needs. HOW TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE FEDERALLY AT STATE OR AT COUNTY LEVEL for those who have experienced NATL DISASTER???
