“Insurance is part of the spectrum so our roadmap to recovery includes personal finance decision making.” -Amy Bach, Esq.

“Take one step at a time. Some days, you are going to be able to make great strides, other days, you're going to want to stay in bed.” -Kendall Jarvis, Esq.

“We can't just tell these people ‘good luck, have a nice life’. We will do what we know how to do well—building houses and we'll go raise money for them.” -Zack Rosenburg

Episode Description:

There are things we often don't want to talk about— but need to know, including insurance and legal aid. Not many people enjoy getting insurance, but it's becoming more and more necessary as we continue to experience stronger and more frequent disasters.

However, even these recovery processes can be taxing and even more painful than the disaster itself. As we venture out of our safe places and repair what was damaged, we're often left on our own to navigate what can be a confusing process with all the terms and legalities that come along with litigation. Although the situation may seem bleak in the immediate aftermath, there are organizations and groups to help you recover.

Our guests, United Policyholders Founder, Amy Bach, Esq., Disaster Relief Attorney for Legal Aid of Sonoma County, Kendall Jarvis Esq., and CEO of Saint Bernard Project/SBP, Zack Rosenburg share how their organizations are helping people get the help they deserve, the factors that contribute to underinsurance, how to navigate financial decisions in the midst of a traumatic event, the mechanisms and processes that take place before funds are released, and the socio-economic and racial implication of reimbursements. Tune in and discover resources you can tap into for long-term recovery.
