Why should you attend?

Disasters are not a part of our everyday lives. Developing appropriate plans and performing repetitive exercises is the only way to be prepared during the actual disaster. Disasters take many shapes and may negatively affect one person or thousands. Earthquakes, floods, fires, hurricanes, industrial accidents, airline crashes and terrorism are a few examples of what may elicit traumatic behavioral and emotional response. For such events, the need for crisis counseling is just as important as the need to clean up debris and reconstruct property. Listen to experienced speakers that can address how to deal with the “Before, During and After” of Disaster Preparedness. You will also have the opportunity to see some of the latest technology tools that can assist your organization with Disaster Preparedness.

Health Officials, Federal Agencies, Public Officials, Emergency Service Directors, SERC members, LEPC members, Representatives of Law Enforcement, Fire, Environmental, Business, Hospitals, Social Service Agencies, Volunteer Agencies, County School Safety Officials Weather Services and those involved with the State Wide Mapping Project.
