	Description:		Show Notes: The Louisiana Governor’s Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness recently hosted the 2018 National Shelter and Housing Workshop in New Orleans. Several recent emergency and disaster events have highlighted the need for states to examine immediate sheltering options and to develop long term housing solutions for their populations. Louisiana is among the states that have recently been hit by natural disasters and is currently recovering from the devastating impacts of the 2016 floods. As a result, GOHSEP has worked with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and other federal and state partners to develop the workshop which focused on addressing these sheltering and housing concerns after a disaster. The workshop includes reviews of Louisiana’s Shelter at Home program, New York’s Rapid Repair Housing program, Texas’ Partial Repair and Essential Power for Sheltering program and Puerto Rico’s Tu Hogar Renace (Your Home Reborn) program. This podcast includes interviews with participants and workshop organizers.
