When disaster strikes, the investigation is only part of the story. What happens to the families left behind? Who answers their questions, helps them navigate the unimaginable, and makes sure they aren't forgotten in the aftermath?

On this episode of OnTopic with Empathia, Jenn Stansberry Miller sits down with Sharon Bryson, former NTSB Managing Director and disaster assistance leader, and Kathryn Turman, who established and led the FBI's Victim Services Division, to explore how families and survivors helped reshape disaster response in America.

Drawing on their experiences with tragedies including Pan Am Flight 103, the Oklahoma City bombing, and September 11, they share how listening to families, coordinating agencies, and building relationships transformed the way organizations support victims and survivors.
