Partners & Composition · Briefing 05
Mission-specific partner composition.
Disaster Corps does not operate a paid coalition or a static partner roster. Partner teams are composed for each mission when there is a defined government requirement, a funded pathway, and clearly defined roles — always within the Courageous Horizons Program.

- ·State Veterans Affairs & Adjutant General offices
- ·Federal partners (FEMA and related)
- ·Rural development & infrastructure authorities
National Guard & Veteran
- ·National Guard leadership & state Guard structures
- ·Veteran-serving DoD and VA programs

Public-Private Integration
Integration around missions, not membership.
Public-private integration is a core operating principle. Small businesses participate meaningfully — especially in debris, infrastructure, and local services — and technology partners test emerging solutions inside real readiness contexts. All of this is situated within specific missions of the Courageous Horizons Program, with defined workshare and mission roles.
