Webinar: The Disaster Recovery Reform Act of 2018: What Legal Aid Providers Should Know - April 10
Pro Bono Net and Lone Star Legal Aid are co-hosting a webinar entitled The Disaster Recovery Reform Act of 2018: What Legal Aid Providers Should Know on Wednesday, April 10, 2019 from 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM Eastern.
On October 5th, 2018, the Disaster Recovery Reform Act of 2018 was signed into law. The act contains over 50 provisions that amend the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act by requiring FEMA to change its policies and regulations. The goal of this webinar is to provide participants with an overview of changes to the Stafford Act that affect their representation of disaster survivors. Panelists will share best practices and answer questions from participants.
Disaster legal aid practitioners and pro bono professionals from legal service organizations, bar associations, corporations, and legal service providers, as well as attorneys interested in participating in rapid response efforts now or in the future, are encouraged to attend.
Panelists:
- Tracy Figueroa, Disaster Assistance Group Coordinator - Texas RíoGrande Legal Aid
- Danielle M. Aymond, Of Counsel - Baker Donelson
Registrants will receive a link to the recording and materials after the webinar.
