ACT Disaster Assistance Guidelines

After a disaster, supports may be available to help you.

After a disaster, the ACT Government may offer supports and services to help the community recover.

The Disaster Assistance Guidelines list the types of support the government may offer. Pre-planning these supports allows us to activate them quicker.

Each disaster causes unique community needs that we can’t anticipate before the event. The community recovers best when we take a targeted approach and match needs with supports. The guidelines are a list of possible options. We may create extra supports if needed.

You can learn more by reading the Disaster Assistance Guidelines document.
