NACo Disaster Reform Task Force issues final report
The National Association of Counties (NACo) Intergovernmental Disaster Reform Task Force, which was launched in November 2024 to strengthen our nation’s disaster mitigation, response and recovery capabilities, released its final report and NACo’s federal disaster reform priorities at the recent NACo Annual Conference. Commissioner Frank Williams, pictured below with U.S. Senator Ted Budd during a task force event, served on the task force.

With a commitment to advancing federal policies that foster collaboration between counties, federal agencies and other intergovernmental partners, the Task Force builds on years of county-led efforts to enhance disaster policies and practices, driving improved outcomes nationwide.
