About this division

This division works with tribal nations, local governments and recovery contractors before and after a declared disaster. We write the plans that keep communities eligible for FEMA mitigation grants, document damage after an event, and help applicants recover every eligible dollar.

Our team brings graduate training in federal Indian law and a working knowledge of the insurance claims that FEMA reduces Public Assistance against.
