SBP, a social impact organization focused on disaster resilience and recovery, envisions a future where everyone—regardless of economic status or geography—can rebound quickly from extreme weather events. Since our founding in 2006 after Hurricane Katrina, our mission has been to shrink the time between disaster and recovery, building stronger communities and making sure the most vulnerable are not left behind.

What sets SBP apart?  

We don’t just react to natural disasters—we take a comprehensive, long-term approach.  

SBP trains and advises individuals, communities, nonprofits, businesses, and government officials in disaster preparedness, mitigation and recovery; rebuilds damaged homes; helps people optimize financial awards and assistance; funds, supports, and shares best practices with other disaster relief organizations; and advocates for systemic change at the policy level. 

Our innovative, multi-pronged approach is driven by the dedication and passion of volunteers and AmeriCorps members, the generosity of donors and partners, and our incredible SBP team, all united by a commitment to our mission and helping those most in need. We’re making a lasting impact on thousands of lives—and we’d love for you to join us!
