    "The Disaster Accountability Project is desperately needed infrastructure for ensuring that government and non-governmental agencies play an effective role, and do what they say, in preparing for and responding to disasters. We saw the result of not having effective oversight in the aftermath of Katrina and the continued inability of government services to hold themselves accountable. It's long overdue."

    -- James Rucker, Executive Director, Color Of Change. ColorOfChange.org is an online organizing effort similar to MoveOn.org consisting of more than 135,000 members focused on amplifying black America's political voice.


    "If the Disaster Accountability Project can have even a modest positive impact on citizen-based, non-partisan oversight, accountability and follow-through for disaster-relief services, it will be worth every cent and every ounce of energy expended. Those impacted by disasters deserve no less."

    -- Dr. Ray Scurfield, Professor and Director, Katrina Research Center, The University of Southern Mississippi Gulf Coast, Long Beach, Miss.
