Saint Louis, Missouri, 03/09/07. Today, Disaster Recovery America released their newweb-based disaster recovery resource center at www.disasterrecoveryamerica.co m.DRA's comprehensive family safety offering streamlines the disaster recoveryplanning process by efficiently structuring and combining instructional,educational, research, and planning materials in one place. DRA's family safetysolution also includes a secure and encrypted database to safely store plan contentand upload important family documents.
Individual family member clients are provided 24/7 secure access to their privateand individually tailored disaster recovery resource center, which contains acomprehensive and feature rich toolset used for developing and maintaining theirdisaster recovery plan.
John Lazare, DRA's executive director, noted, Â Our research shows the 3 main reasonsless than 5% of U.S. families have developed disaster plans are:
1) The information required is too fragmented and time consuming to assemble. 2) Available family disaster planning documentation is confusing, incomplete, and doesn't offer a secure storage and retrieval solution. 3) A good number of American families still possess a false sense of entitlement toward family safety and feel they are immune from disaster.Â
John commented further that, Â We knew in order for our service to have real valueand appeal to the average American family, it had to be secure, efficient andaffordable. DRA's proprietary security measures provide the strongest clientprotection available. Our intelligently designed client resource center allowsAmerican families to complete their individual disaster recovery plans in acondensed timeframe, and our affordable ($5 a month) membership fee places disasterrecovery insurance within just about anyone's reach.Â
Recently, George Moore, DRA's director of marketing, stated, Â We designed ourresource center structure and content around a proven and tested emergency/disasterplanning and deployment model. Our finished product gives American familiesaffordable access to a 1 stop, comprehensive, disaster recovery planning resource.Our product's efficient structure and proven effectiveness completes the familysafety planning circle and makes us unique as a disaster recovery service provider.Â
The world we live in has changed dramatically as a result of natural and man-madedisasters over the last 10 years. Our country's growing unpopularity across theglobe, the devastating 2005 hurricane season, imminent earthquake predictions,west coast mudslides and wildfires, and the World Trade Center destruction, arejust a few examples of the dangers each of us face everyday. These recent eventswarrant additional consideration, and hopefully a call to action for Americanfamilies to develop comprehensive disaster recovery safety plans.
