Question: How might we restore housing after natural disasters?

Two design tactics: Micro housing, Fire Station (first responders)

My idea was to allow people whose homes were destroyed in natural disasters to stay in micro housing. Unconventional housing can accommodate people in need while keeping families together. First responders and construction workers could repair homes that aren’t fully destroyed. What we would need is people that could restore the once destroyed housing in order for families to move back in. Families would be able to have a roof over their head and each other to hold while workers work to restore what was destroyed for them.
