Fremont County Disaster Coaltiion
Helping Fremont County PREPARE, RESPOND, and RECOVER in disaster
OUR VISION
Fremont County Disaster Coalition works in cooperation with Fremont County Emergency Management, government entities, faith-based groups, community service organizations, and volunteers to secure equitable assistance for Fremont County residents who are experiencing disaster.
OUR PAST
Fremont County Long Term Disaster Recovery Group, now doing business as Fremont County Disaster Coalition, was originally formed in 2011. The group was re-established in 2019 to provide aid after the flood. Since March, 2019 this organization has distributed nearly $240,000 in financial assistance, as well as a variety of other goods and services, to over 240 affected households in Fremont County.
OUR FUTURE
As we move out of recovery, Fremont County Disaster Coalition is transitioning into a group of volunteers focused on preparing for disasters so we are ready to respond efficiently and equitably in providing aid.
