Disaster Preparation & Trauma Mitigation Training Workshops
Grassroots Readiness and Response Workshop

Disasters affect us more often than we expect. Floods, fires, blackouts, steam pipe explosions and tornadoes are all emergencies that have recently touched our communities. Are you prepared to handle such events? Do you know how to effectively and safely collaborate with disaster managers during times of crisis? Join us on September 10th to explore answers to these important questions.
