Abstract

In the wake of Hurricane Helene, North Carolina has seen its people come together in extraordinary ways, embodying the spirit of the "whole community" approach. This approach emphasizes the collaboration of various stakeholders, including local residents, businesses, government agencies, and nonprofits, to enhance disaster response and recovery efforts. By involving everyone, it ensures that the diverse needs of the community are met efficiently. This collective effort fosters resilience and strengthens the community's ability to bounce back from adversity. This disaster, of biblical proportions, has tested the state's resilience, but the response has been nothing short of inspiring. This approach not only expedites immediate recovery but also builds long-term resilience by fostering stronger relationships and trust among community members. By continuously involving all stakeholders, it ensures better preparedness for future disasters. Additionally, it promotes sustainable development practices that can mitigate the impact of future emergencies. Faith-based organizations, nongovernmental organizations, and everyday citizens have all united, pulling together to support their fellow neighbors and meet immediate needs long before federal aid could arrive.

海伦:整个社区的做法——北卡罗来纳在面对灾难时团结一致。
