NOVACES Supports Tennessee Community Recovery Workshops Following Tropical Storm Helene

In April 2025, NOVACES economic development and disaster recovery advisors provided technical assistance and logistical support to regional Development Districts serving communities in East and Northeast Tennessee, aiding their on-the-ground efforts to deliver community workshops focused on Tropical Storm Helene recovery work.

Operating under the direction of the Economic Development Administration’s (EDA) Economic Recovery Support Function for DR-4832-TN, NOVACES played a key role in the visioning and planning of the workshops. This included recruiting expert speakers, coordinating logistics, and ensuring attendees had access to critical information on funding opportunities and other recovery resources.

Each event featured:

  • County Mayor Forums – Local leaders shared progress updates, challenges, and perspectives on recovery efforts within their communities.
  • Industry Roundtables – Specialists from key sectors participated in focused discussions to identify obstacles and highlight actionable solutions to support long-term regional recovery.

The workshops served as platforms to:

  • Share the latest funding and recovery program updates
  • Encourage collaboration across public, private and nonprofit sectors
  • Elevate the work and progress of local long-term recovery groups to a broader audience

NOVACES is proud to be a trusted partner to state agencies, county governments, and community-based organizations as they develop and implement economic growth strategies in disaster-impacted regions.

NOVACES Contributes to National Dialogue on FEMA Reform and Resilience Strategy

On April 24, 2025 NOVACES Director of Economic Development & Resilience participated in a national think tank hosted by the Institute for Sustainable Development at George Mason University’s Alexandria, Virginia campus. This one-day event brought together a multidisciplinary group of experts from across the country to examine the far-reaching implications of proposed reform measures to FEMA.

Participants expressed concern that many states and key stakeholders may underestimate the scope of the coming changes. The think tank explored how states could get prepared to take on greater responsibility and what knowledge and expertise are required to do so.

Key topics included:

  • Strategies for enhancing state-level resilience and readiness
  • Recommendations for federal policy changes
  • The transition from an emergency management-based model to a broader resilience and risk management framework

Discussions also addressed critical areas such as insurance, infrastructure, housing, and homeland security—highlighting the need for a more integrated and proactive approach to disaster recovery and long-term resilience planning.
