CRITICAL NEEDS

Oregon Disaster Funders Network listens to our communities to fully understand their needs—in the short- and long-term—and prepare for future disasters using a resilience, relationship-centered lens.

  • Food, water, shelter: Our established relationships with the nonprofits and CBOs on the ground in communities across Oregon ensures that we know exactly who to contact when disaster strikes.

  • Case management, resource allocation, mental health resources are all part of the process.

  • We understand that when the initial media attention quiets down, there is still so much to be done. The ODFNetwork has long standing relationships with Long-Term Recovery Groups and other key providers of case management and individual survivor and community needs throughout the state.

  • We work with disaster resilience educators, community organizers, survivors, and professionals from the public and private sectors who share the same goal - making a more resilient Oregon.
