Kerr Together Disaster Task Force

Phase 1 focuses on rapid response efforts — including emergency assistance, shelter coordination, business impact assessments, and resource distribution. Our priority during this phase is to rescue what matters most: lives, livelihoods, and the foundation of our community.

Through coordinated action with local agencies, nonprofits, and volunteers, this phase ensures that urgent needs are met while laying the groundwork for recovery.

Phase 1: Rescue (July 4 to present)

Phase 2 centers on stabilizing impacted families and businesses through financial assistance, temporary housing, mental health services, infrastructure assessments, and business continuity support.

This phase is about helping our community regain its footing—restoring operations, reopening doors, and reconnecting residents with essential services. By working together with local partners and state agencies, we are turning short-term relief into long-term recovery with care, clarity, and commitment.

Phase 3: Rebuild & Reinforce

With immediate needs addressed and recovery in motion, Kerr Together is now focused on rebuilding a stronger, more resilient Kerr County. Phase 3 emphasizes long-term investments in infrastructure, housing, and economic stability—while reinforcing the systems, partnerships, and planning needed to withstand future challenges.

This phase is about more than restoration. It’s about strengthening what we’ve learned, supporting our businesses and families for the long haul, and ensuring our community is equipped to thrive—no matter what comes next. Together, we’re not just rebuilding—we’re reinforcing the foundation for a stronger tomorrow.
