Hurricane Preparedness Week begins on May 5th, and with the increased frequency and severity of hurricanes, now is the time to prepare. Weather events like hurricanes can devastate communities and impact supply chains, leaving localities in disarray and urgently in need of aid. This is why prepositioning relief supplies is essential, efficient, and effective. By storing materials and products in warehouses strategically located around the country before a disaster happens, Good360 can quickly deploy aid to vulnerable regions. Prepositioning significantly reduces response times, streamlines relief efforts, and ultimately allows Good360 to make a bigger impact. https://ow.ly/xikL50Rw8Ez

Last week, FEMA unveiled significant updates to the Individual Assistance program, making disaster relief faster and more accessible. Here's what you need to know: Quicker Access to Funds Expanded Eligibility for Property/Home Repairs Simplified Application Process Introduction of Serious Needs Assistance Program Launching the Displacement Assistance Program In their press release, FEMA highlighted that the increased frequency of extreme weather events fueled by climate change are the reasons for these changes and will provide survivors with “faster and easier access to resources they need after disasters.” These changes take effect on March 22, 2024, just in time for the next hurricane season. At iParametrics, we're gearing up to assist you in navigating these new resources and processes. Our goal is to be your go-to support when disaster strikes and are ready to start implementing these changes as soon as they go into effect! #FEMA #changes #disasterrecovery #emergencymanagement #climatechange #disasterrelief #fasterrelief #displacementassistance #individualasisistance #seriousneedsassistance

Hurricane Beryl has strengthened back into a Category 3 storm and is projected to make landfall in Tulum, Mexico early Friday. With winds reaching 115 mph, the storm presents a significant threat to the region. President Andrés Manuel López Obrador has issued a statement urging tourists to evacuate to higher ground or seek shelter. Authorities have prepared storm shelters, evacuated coastal communities, and taken measures to protect vulnerable assets such as sea turtle eggs. As Beryl approaches, it is expected to weaken over the Yucatan Peninsula but may regain hurricane strength upon entering the Gulf of Mexico. The impact of this storm underscores the importance of disaster preparedness and timely response in mitigating the effects of natural disasters. #WNO #HurricaneBeryl #Tulum #StormPreparedness #DisasterManagement #Mexico

The MDRI requires all wireless providers to: - Enter into reasonable arrangements for roaming during disasters; - Establish arrangements for providing mutual aid during disasters; - Take reasonable measures to enhance municipal preparedness and restoration; - Take reasonable measures to increase consumer readiness and preparation; and - Take reasonable measures to improve public awareness and stakeholder communications on service and restoration status.
