Pamilya- Ayon kay Pierangelo Alejo(2004), ang pamilya ang pangunahing institusyon sa
lipunan na nabuo sa pamamagitan ng pagpapakasal ng isang lalaki at babae dahil sa
kanilang walang pag- iimbot, puro, at romantikong pagmamahal- kapwa nangakong
magsasama hanggang sa wakas ng kanilang buhay.
Ang pamilya ay pamayanan ng mga tao na kung saan ang maayos na paraan ng
pag-iral at pamumuhay ay nakabatay sa ugnayan.
. Ang pamilya ang una at pinakamahalagang yunit ng lipunan. Ito ang pundasyon ng
lipunan at patuloy na sumusuporta dito dahil sa gampanin nitong magbigay- buhay.
Mahalagang misyon ng pamilya ang pagbibigay ng edukasyon, paggabay sa
mabuting pagpapasiya, at paghubog ng pananampalataya.

Social group- Tumutukoy ang social group sa dalawa o higit pang taong may
magkakatulad na katangian na nagkakaroon ng ugnayan sa bawat isa at bumubuo ng isang
ugnayang panlipunan .
A social group is a collection of people who interact with each other and share similar
characteristics and a sense of unity. A social category is a collection of people who do not
interact but who share similar characteristics.
A primary group is typically a small social group (small-scale society) whose members share
close, personal, enduring relationships. These groups are marked by members' concern for
one another, in shared activities and culture. Examples include family, childhood friends,
and highly influential social groups.
Secondary groups are another type of social group. They have the opposite characteristics
of primary groups. They can be small or large and are mostly impersonal and usually short
term. These groups are typically found at work and school.

Dalawang Approach
The National Governor’s Association designed a phase of disaster model to help emergency
managers prepare for and respond to a disaster, also known as the ‘life cycle’ of
comprehensive emergency management. The four phases of disaster: 1) mitigation; 2)
preparedness; 3) response; and 4) recovery.
Phases of Disaster
Mitigation
Mitigation involves steps to reduce vulnerability to disaster impacts such as injuries and loss
of life and property. This might involve changes in local building codes to fortify buildings;
revised zoning and land use management; strengthening of public infrastructure; and other
efforts to make the community more resilient to a catastrophic event.
Preparedness
Preparedness focuses on understanding how a disaster might impact the community and
how education, outreach and training can build capacity to respond to and recover from a
disaster. This may include engaging the business community, pre-disaster strategic
planning, and other logistical readiness activities. The disaster preparedness activities guide
provides more information on how to better prepare an organization and the business
community for a disaster.
Response
Response addresses immediate threats presented by the disaster, including saving lives,
meeting humanitarian needs (food, shelter, clothing, public health and safety), cleanup,
damage assessment, and the start of resource distribution. As the response period
progresses, focus shifts from dealing with immediate emergency issues to conducting
repairs, restoring utilities, establishing operations for public services (including permitting),
and finishing the cleanup process.
Triage efforts assess and deal with the most pressing emergency issues. This period is
often marked by some level of chaos, which can last a month or more, depending on the
nature of the disaster and the extent of damage. Federal resources, such as action from
the Federal Emergency Management Agency (in the case of a major disaster declaration)
and non-profit resources such as the Red Cross are deployed immediately
Business re-entry into the economy begins during this phase. Businesses initially may
face issues with access to their site, preliminary damage assessment, and communications
with staff, vendors, suppliers and customers. Ongoing issues may include access to capital
and workers, the repair of damaged property or inventory, and a diminished customer
base. It is in this phase that long-term future of a region’s business base will be saved or
lost.
Business Recovery Centers are quickly set up in a community to centralize small
business recovery resources (e.g. SBA, SBDC, SCORE, CDFI, etc), local bank officers,
technical assistance providers, and other critical assistance for maintaining business
continuity and/or get businesses up and running.
Federal resources from SBA, FEMA, HUD, EDA, USDA, etc., as well as state programs,
start to arrive; temporary housing goes up; and the planning for the reconstruction of
damaged infrastructure, facilities, and areas begins. The response phase typically continues
through the sixth month, again depending on the nature of the disaster.
Recovery
Recovery is the fourth phase of disaster and is the restoration of all aspects of the disaster’s
impact on a community and the return of the local economy to some sense of normalcy. By
this time, the impacted region has achieved a degree of physical, environmental, economic
and social stability.
The recovery phase of disaster can be broken into two periods. The short-term phase
typically lasts from six months to at least one year and involves delivering immediate
services to businesses. The long-term phase, which can range up to decades, requires
thoughtful strategic planning and action to address more serious or permanent impacts of a
disaster. Investment in economic development capacity building becomes essential to foster
economic diversification, attain new resources, build new partnerships and implement
effective recovery strategies and tactics. Communities must access and deploy a range of
public and private resources to enable long-term economic recovery.
Structural Mitigation is the physical changes or act of protection from disasters or hazards.
For example, structural mitigation would be when a family reinforces there home to make it
more wind proof, or earthquake proof. In addition, other structural mitigation examples
would be things like creating a sandbag barrier around the home when a flood might occur.
In general structural mitigation is the direct actions that people take, build, or move in
order to better preserve their life and or property.
