The Malibu Community Long Term Recovery Group is a collaboration of non-profit, faith based, local, state or national organizations that work together to provide coordinated management of the long-term recovery to disaster survivors of Palisades and Franklin Fires and provide additional long-term assistance to individuals affected by the disasters who do not have adequate personal resources as a result of the disaster. 

Founded in response to the December 2024 Franklin Fire and January 2025 Palisades Fire, the mission of the Malibu Community LTRG is to assist individuals and families impacted by these fires and support resilience-building in light of almost certain future disasters.  Malibu Community LTRG will do this by:

• Assessing and cataloging the unmet needs of individuals and families most impacted by disasters.
• Identifying and securing financial and other resources to meet those unmet needs.
• Coordinating and managing the matching of resources to those unmet needs.
• Supporting targeted city and community efforts to prepare for and build resilience against future disasters.

Services will be provided regardless of the individuals’ race, creed, color, gender, disability or religious preference. The goal of the Malibu Community LTRG is to seek community wholeness.
