Develop a disaster recovery plan to reduce health disparities and improve access to community services after a disaster. Then develop a brochure, storyboard, or poster communicating the plan for the local system, city officials, and the disaster relief team. **Refer to document attached to focus on specific community (Hypertension in South Side Chicago) for plan & poster board**

Use the following steps to gather the information you need to create your disaster recovery plan. Then follow the grading criteria attached document (By successful completing this assessment) as the guide for what to include and how to structure your brochure, storyboard, or poster.

1. Develop a disaster recovery plan for the community that will lessen health disparities and improve access to services after a disaster. Refer back to the community chosen for your health promotion plan.

• Assess community needs.
• Consider resources, personnel, budget, and community makeup.
• Identify the people accountable for implementation of the plan and describe their roles.
• Focus on specific Healthy People 2030 objectives.
• Include a timeline for the recovery effort.

2.Focus on the following areas in your crisis communication plan:

• Information gathering.
• This is critical not only to promote situational awareness but also to receive feedback on messages and how they are received and interpreted. Media monitoring and analysis, including social media, is a central function because the media remains a source of timely information during any crisis. Close coordination with other response agencies and partners, and their public information officers (PIOs), to gather the most current information is also critical.
• Use the demographic data and specifics related to the disaster to identify the needs of the community and develop a recovery plan. Consider physical, emotional, cultural, and financial needs of the entire community.
• Information dissemination.
• This includes using a variety of channels to reach multiple audiences. These activities include general media relations, working with designated spokespersons, organizing news conferences, and providing briefings and updates. Inquiries and questions from the general public must also be addressed and should be documented through contact logs. In addition, officials and other key leaders must be briefed. These information dissemination activities should extend to web support and social media.
• Operation support.
• This involves a variety of communication activities, including addressing special needs and multilingual audiences through translation and other services. Facilities support activities involve ensuring sufficient communications capacity to support operations.
• Liaisons.
• They can provide two-way communication and coordination with key stakeholders and partners. Close coordination is necessary to achieve an effective response and create consistent messages.
• Provide support for your position.
• Include in your plan contact tracing of the homeless, disabled, displaced community members, migrant workers, and those who have hearing impairment or English as a second language in the event of severe tornadoes.

3.Develop a brochure, storyboard, or poster of your disaster recovery plan. You can use one of the free templates available on the web page, storyboard, or poster templates.

The requirements outlined below correspond to the grading criteria attached document (By successfully completing this assessment) in the scoring guide, so be sure to address each point. Read the performance-level descriptions for each criterion in the scoring guide to see how your work will be assessed.

• Describe determinants of health and cultural, social, and economic barriers that impact community safety, health, and disaster recovery efforts.
• Consider the interrelationships among these factors.
• Explain how your proposed disaster recovery plan will lessen health disparities and improve access to community services.
• Consider principles of social justice and cultural sensitivity with respect to ensuring health equity for individuals, families, and aggregates in the community.
• Explain how health and governmental policy impacts disaster recovery efforts in a community.
• Consider the implications of legislation for community members such as the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA), Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, and 2018 Disaster Recovery Reform Act (DRRA).
• Consider trace-mapping the community progress during the recovery phase. (You can consult the resources in the reading list for more information about contact trace-mapping.)
• Present specific, evidence-based strategies to overcome communication barriers and enhance interprofessional collaboration to improve disaster recovery efforts in a community using the CERC framework.
• Consider how your proposed strategies will affect members of the disaster relief team, individuals, families, and aggregates in the community.
• Identify evidence that supports your strategies.
• Organize content with clear purpose/goals and with relevant and evidence-based sources (published within 5 years).
• Make sure your choice of a brochure, storyboard, or poster is easy to read and error-free.
• Develop your assessment with a specific purpose and audience in mind.
