What’s Inside The Red Guide

The Red Guide to Recovery is a comprehensive, easy-to-read post incident recovery tool that walks disaster survivors step-by-step through the recovery process.

When first responders and emergency personnel leave the scene of a disaster, survivors often fall prey to predatory solicitors, scams, misinformation, and/or make decisions that have serious long term implications. In general, people who go through a disaster do not know what course of action to take in the aftermath.

In addition to a 10-Point Quick Start checklist for the first 24 hours of recovery, the guide includes detailed chapters on these topics:

  • Emergency services to secure and protect property
  • Displacement and relocation tips
  • Disaster relief and financial assistance
  • Homeowners insurance issues after a loss
  • Personal property considerations
  • Smoke and water damage information
  • Estimating repair costs to structural damages
  • Selecting a qualified contractor
  • Public insurance adjuster services
  • Hazardous material concerns
  • Safety and precautions after a disaster
  • Trauma intervention and grief counseling
  • Avoiding disaster scams
  • Phone directory with local, state, and federal government agencies, insurance companies and websites
