LONG TERM RECOVERY GROUP
​
The purpose of the LTRG is to provide recovery services to individuals, households, and businesses affected by disasters in Polk County. LTRGs encourage community participation and the pooling together of resources to get the most out of the recovery effort. More specifically, LTRGs help to communicate up-to-date information, organize volunteers, bring in targeted supplies and funds, and capture the story of community disasters. ​
For more information on LTRGs and the happenings in other communities across the state, check out NC VOAD (North Carolina Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster).
