Who We Are
New Hanover Disaster Coalition supports nonprofit, faith-based, business, and governmental partners with a common interest in helping our community in times of disaster. NHDC serves as a central point of communication and coordination, helping to ensure relief efforts are as efficient and equitable as possible, as well as working to reduce the impacts of future crises. We provide continuity across different disaster events and throughout all stages of recovery and preparedness.
What We Do
NHDC enhances the work of partner organizations through facilitation and capacity building, rather than offering direct services. By providing structures and processes for collaborative work, ensuring partners remain engaged and receive support throughout the stages of disaster response, and upholding collective values like transparency and equity, NHDC helps strengthen overall efforts and relationships.
