Community Preparedness: A Year in Review and A Look Ahead


A Year in Review Webinar
FEMA’s Community Preparedness Webinar Series Presents…

Community Preparedness: A Year in Review and A Look Ahead
January 12 at 2:00:00 ET/1:00 CT/Noon MT/11:00 PT 
Throughout the year, federal, state, local, and private sector organizations release program initiatives, create exercises promoting community preparedness, train volunteers to help prepare, respond, recover from and mitigate disasters and generally promote the idea of community preparedness. All of these efforts reflect FEMA’s Whole Community approach to emergency management.

The Community Preparedness Webinar Series would like to recognize these efforts and highlight future plans for 2012. Join us to hear about the Emergency Preparedness accomplishments of 2011 and to learn more about what you can expect in 2012. Anyone who is interested in what the New Year might bring in terms of emergency preparedness should join this webinar.

Registration is required for this FREE event. If you previously registered, you can use your current login information to access the webinar. If you have any questions regarding the call, please contact ready@fema.gov
