Including Disability Communities in Emergency Preparedness: Two-Part Webinar Series

We are excited to announce our upcoming second training series specifically for emergency preparedness professionals and organization representatives. This two-part series is designed to enhance inclusivity and community engagement in emergency preparedness efforts.  

Join us for an informative two-part series. The first session will be recorded and include the content of the Ready Now! Emergency Preparedness Tool Kit, how to engage with people with disabilities, and tips on how to make accessible spaces for people with disabilities and their families to share and participate in emergency preparedness. The second session will be an interactive discussion to learn more from each other about what ways you have worked with communities to increase emergency preparedness engagement, and any successes and challenges in those efforts. We hope you can join us!
