We help communities
prepare, recover, and rebuild.
We help people prepare before disaster strikes, walk with them through the aftermath, and support the long-term process of rebuilding. HOPE Inside Disaster, powered by HOPE Coalition America, is the nation’s first and only financial emergency preparedness and recovery program. We help individuals, families, and small business owners navigate the often-overlooked financial impact of disaster, from credit and insurance to budgets and business continuity.
We are proud to offer a hand-up to individuals and communities before, during, and after life’s storms — both natural and human made — and the financial preparation and recovery required for a safe landing and fresh start.

expenses present themselves. Financial preparedness can’t wait

FINANCIAL DISASTER PREPAREDNESS TOOLS

A step-by-step tool to build an emergency plan tailored to your household or business. -

We’ve been there.
Every disaster is different but the need for hope, structure, and financial clarity is always the same. And that’s where we come in.
When wildfires tore through Los Angeles, we were on the ground within days, helping survivors find stability amid uncertainty.
When Maui faced unimaginable loss, our team mobilized to assist small business owners, renters, and families navigating the path to recovery.
After devastating hurricanes hit Puerto Rico, we supported local partners and residents rebuilding their financial lives from the ground up.
Our coaches meet people where they are — on-site at disaster recovery centers, virtually through our HOPE Crisis Hotline, and through local partnerships that extend our reach and deepen our impact.
We don’t just respond to emergencies. We walk with communities toward long-term resilience.
