What is DCM?
“Disaster Case Management is a partnership between the case manager and the client in the development of a Disaster Recovery Plan. The process involves assessing needs based on verified disaster damage, developing a goal-oriented plan that outlines all necessary steps to achieve recovery, organizing and coordinating the information on the available resources that match the disaster caused needs, monitoring the progress towards reaching the stated goals and, when necessary, acting as an advocate for the client.”
