Program:
(NDMP) National Disaster Mitigation Program
Program Purpose:
The aim of the NDMP is to reduce the impacts of natural disasters on Canadians by: 1) focusing investments on significant, recurring flood risks and costs; and 2) advancing work to facilitate private residential insurance for overland flooding. The objective of the Program is to enable the Canadian Red Cross (CRC) to support Canadians’ needs stemming from COVID-19, floods and wildfires.
Through the provision of funding to the CRC under this program, the CRC will have the resources to reduce the impact of COVID-19 on Canadians as well as that of floods and wildfires.
