Data comprise 73 NGO leader interviews from 2014 and 75 survey responses from 2020. Analysis shows a slight increase in NGOs engaged in any type of disaster planning from 2014 to 2020, with more staff generally meaning more planning. While increased staff were considered most likely and regulations least likely to increase engagement in 2014 and 2020, public support and technical assistance were seen in 2020as more likely to increase engagement. This study expands scholarship on NGO disaster planning and practical knowledge regarding areas for collaboration between government and NGOs in overcoming barriers and planning for disasters caused by natural hazards.application/pdfenIn CopyrightArticle - Refereed2023-02-01Velez, Anne-Lise [0000-0002-9396-7063]
