“…The uncertainties of the disasters may discourage prospective students from pursuing higher education or force them to delay their plans until things stabilize. Natural disasters have a major and wide-ranging effect on student enrollment [ 20 , 58 ]. The drop in enrollment rates is one of the most obvious effects.…”

“…Additionally, some studies have examined how technology might help higher education institutions be more resilient and adaptable in the face of calamities [ [16] , [17] , [18] , [19] ]. Segarra-Alméstica et al [ 20 ] studied how educational outcomes, particularly for vulnerable populations, were impacted by school service interruptions connected to Hurricane Maria and the 2020 earthquake sequence. They discovered that teenagers who reside in locations where the storm caused significant damage or whose schools were closed down permanently as a result are more likely to experience a deterioration in their academic performance and, in some circumstances, to quit attending school entirely.…”

“…This housing instability in turn is associated with increased mortality [3], and families who struggle to find permanent housing post-disaster may relocate multiple times. Combined with the destruction of local schools, this housing instability disrupts children's school attendance and eventual educational attainment [8]. The displacement of the limited local medical providers that a rural community had available pre-wildfire, as well as the destruction of local medical facilities, further curtail healthcare access [3,6].…”

Background: U.S. wildfire activity has increased over the past several decades, disrupting the systems and infrastructure that support community health and resilience. As the cumulative burden of wildfire damage is projected to increase, understanding an effective community recovery process is critically important. Through qualitative interviews with leaders of long-term recovery organizations (LTROs), a key component of wildfire recovery, we explored barriers and facilitators to LTROs’ ability to support post-wildfire needs among rural communities. Method: Between February-May 2022, we conducted surveys and semi-structured interviews with 18 leaders from six LTROs serving rural communities in Washington, Oregon, and California impacted by wildfires between 2015-2020. The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation’s Culture of Health Framework informed the semi-structured interview guide and a priori codebook, to examine LTROs’ ability to address post-wildfire community needs from a health equity perspective. Additional codes were added through an inductive approach, and emerging themes were identified.Results: Our findings indicate that LTROs face many barriers in addressing community needs post-wildfire, including the policies governing access to and the slow arrival of recovery resources, the intertwined nature of community economic health and built environment restoration, and the challenge of forming a functional LTRO structure. However, participants also identified facilitators of LTROs’ work, including the ability of LTROs and their government partners to adapt policies and procedures, and close collaboration with other community organizations. Conclusion: Factors both internal and external to the community and LTROs’ organizational characteristics influence their ability to address community needs, essential to health, post-wildfire. This study’s findings suggest the need for policy improvements to promote more equitable recovery resource access, that economic recovery should be a core LTRO function, and that recovery planning should be incorporated into community disaster preparedness activities. Future research should focus on LTROs’ role in other contexts and in response to other disasters.
