AB  - This work-in-progress paper examines the role of community engagement in disaster recovery through the lens of Household-Community Resiliency Nexus (HCRN) model which explains how household resiliency contributes to community resiliency in the aftermath of a natural disaster. HCRN consists of six capacity factors: tangible resources, investments, network support, household network, grit and attitude towards change. Post-disaster survey responses of a community were utilized to validate the HCRN model. Our preliminary results indicate that involvement of impacted households in local community meetings almost doubled post-disaster. Furthermore, there was a strong relationship between a household’s community meeting attendance and their confidence in handling future difficulties. Additionally, a strong relationship was observed between households’ confidence to recover and households’ belief in the community’s recovery. Findings of this research have implications for development and implementation of community-based, sustainability-focused engineering projects and outreach efforts.
