Summary

Track 2 will award two $200,000 prizes to models that create community surge capacity and coordinated intake within 72 hours of incident stabilization, connecting survivors to long‑term recovery services.

ACF outlined Track 2 as focused on community surge capacity and 'no‑wrong‑door' approaches to connect disaster survivors to services quickly and consistently. Officials said successful models should enable coordinated intake, navigation and activation within roughly 72 hours of incident stabilization to link survivors to longer‑term supports.

The presenter said Track 2 will fund two awards of $200,000 each and that evaluators will look for approaches that can be activated during the moments that matter and have potential for replication across jurisdictions. Examples included integrated disaster case management, information sharing, and multiple entry‑point navigation systems.
