When life gets turned upside down by a storm or disaster, it’s hard to know where to begin — especially when you’ve lost your home, your income, or even just your sense of stability.
That’s why we created the Emergency Recovery Guide — a simple, step-by-step guide to help you or someone you love take back control one small, steady step at a time.
​
This guide doesn’t just cover how to rebuild your finances — it walks you through finding shelter, reaching out for help, creating a survival budget, and protecting your peace in the process. It also includes tips for those who don’t have access to power or communication, and gentle mental health reminders to care for your spirit while you care for your needs.
​
Here’s what this free resource includes:
-
Where to go for shelter, food, and aid — even without phone or internet
-
What to prioritize with your money (and what can wait)
-
How to communicate with creditors and insurance companies
-
Guidance for managing debt while in survival mode
-
Easy grounding tools and faith-based encouragement to reduce stress
-
A printable format to keep handy
​
Even when everything feels scattered, you are still capable, resilient, and deeply loved. Recovery isn't just about rebuilding homes — it’s also about restoring your heart, mind, and hope.
