Dear Disaster-Resistant Community Representatives:

Thanks for taking time to visit our web site.  We hope we will be able to open a dialog with you on subjects of interest to your community.

We realize that although communities are making great strides in the areas of mitigation and preparedness, much work still needs to be done.  Many lessons can be learned from communities with experience in disaster resistance programs.  We believe that pre-disaster community building, both structurally and non-structurally, is essential.  These issues are also of interest nationally and globally.

We advocate exploring new ways to assess our changing resources, to create and enhance partnerships, and to protect our communities and environments from disaster.

At Ruback Associates, we also consider community outreach and philanthropic giving part of our core values and beliefs.  Though we focus on organizations dealing with crisis and disaster events, we also support the work of organizations helping to create a better world on behalf of children, the environment, and other worthy causes.

In addition, you may find the Services and Resources section of this website helpful.  Feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.

Warm regards,

Jasmin R. Ruback, Ph.D
President, Ruback Associates
