A long term recovery group (LTRG) is a cooperative body that is made up of representatives from faith-based, non-profit, government, business and other organizations working within a community to assist individuals and families as they recover from disaster.
LTRG’s are as varied in their structure as are the communities in which they work. The personality and operation of each group is unique and reflects local needs, available resources, cultural diversity, leadership style, and community support. No matter how a group is structured or what it calls itself, the goal is the same: to unite recovery resources with community needs in order to ensure that even the most vulnerable in the community recover from disaster. In Puerto Rico, we have 25 LTRGs around the island. If you want more information about the LTRG’s initiative, you can contact our LTRG committee, ltrg@prvoad.org.
