HACKMANCARTY & Associates Information

A community is a unique, shared place where everyone can have an opportunity to grow and thrive together. A place where equitable economic development can occur. However, economic disruptions from natural, industrial or manmade disasters can challenge even the most vibrant community's residents, businesses, organizations and systems. HACKMANCARTY & Asssociates believes resilient businesses are the heart of a resilient community. We equip leaders in the private, non-profit and public sector with a range of practical prevention, preparation, response and recovery tools and strategies to foster and support accelerated business and economic resiliency. This involves providing training, guidebooks, templates and consulting services. Some sample projects we have worked on include a fundraiser for Ecuadorian Earthquake Relief, an Economic Opportunity Assessment for the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo, updating the Canadian Community Toolkit for Economic Recovery and Resiliency, and resiliency training for community leaders. In December 2017, our Founder released her "Master Your Disaster"​ series of guidebooks targeted to individuals, businesses and communities in their preparation, mitigation, response and recovery efforts. For more information, www.masteryourdisasterbooks.com. The guides are also available in Spanish and audiobook. We are also the creators of the MYD Global YouTube channel where we talk "all things disaster"​. We encourage you to subscribe to stay up to date on resources, tools and tips.
