Sumter County Long Term Recover Group

What is a Long Term Recovery Group?

A Long-Term Recovery Group (LTRG) aims to coordinate various organizations within a community to assist individuals and families in recovering from a disaster by addressing ongoing needs that may not be met by immediate response efforts, focusing on aspects like housing, financial assistance, mental health support, and community rebuilding, ensuring everyone in the affected area has access to necessary resources for Long-Term Recovery.
