    Not If, But When: Disaster Preparedness and Recovery

    When it comes to natural disasters, county officials must think when, not if, an event will happen in their community. Don't miss this important general session that will feature reflections on Hurricane Helene which struck Georgia in September 2024, causing widespread damage across 41 counties and prompting a Major Disaster Declaration. Helene was one of the most devastating hurricanes to hit the mainland United States in decades, not only severely impacting countless Georgians but also the state’s major industries like agriculture and forestry, resulting in over $5 billion in economic losses. As state, local, and community officials continue to work toward recovery, it's crucial to reflect on the lessons learned.
