The History:
Since the initial landfall of Hurricane Katrina, a growing
number of agencies from the public and private sector have
been working together to help meet the needs of recovering
residents located in the Greater New Orleans area and those
who have been displaced elsewhere. GNODRP was formed in
November of 2005 and has become a collaboration of 60 plus
agencies from the Interfaith, Non Profit and Government
sector, strongly committed to assisting people devastated
by Hurricane Katrina.

General Membership includes:
-Representatives from each participating parish long term
recovery committee
-Religious/Faith Based Organizations
-Disaster Response Agencies
-Social and Human Services Agencies
-Government Liaisons
-Advocacy Groups

Guiding Principles:
-Local focus and involvement – Information and creativity
fostered by the Parish Committees
-Interfaith and Community based - others included
-Local leadership – expanded and developed
-Unmet Needs addressed
-Decisions driven by data – accurate population studies
and needs assessments

GNODRP Information gathering / sharing is currently being
established between agencies to track the progress of
individuals and families. Through this collaboration,
funding entities are working together to bring in more
resources to help meet the needs of area residents.
