The focus of this article is on disaster recovery and rebuilding. The preventive approach manages risks and engages in the process of risk avoidance and disaster preparedness. Such an approach frequently involves multiple layers of society working together. Social workers should be involved in social intervention and preparation as well as the prevention of disasters.
