Mitigation Branch Mitigation is the effort to reduce loss of life and property by lessening the impact of disasters. Nothing can stop disasters from occurring, but Mitigation is a way for communities to lessen the effects of disasters by reinforcing existing structures or building new ones stronger and better than before. In Arkansas, various Mitigation programs have brought millions of dollars to communities to prevent loss of lives and property.
