Crisis
and disasters come in many forms. From natural to man-made events.
It
involves all, not just FEMA, Fire\EMS, and Law Enforcement but an ‘all
hands on deck’, and agencies coordinating resources and expertise and
whole community, entire systems (internal and external) approach to
problem solving. Agencies taking a lead role with the full support of
others in resolving an issue.
Issues
from recovery\homelessness, lack of affordable housing, environmental
contamination of water, food deserts in communities, education, crime, etc.
Ask
questions. Let your perspective, your voice be heard. Solutions can
come in the simplest form. Even from our youth addressing the stuck truck
in the tunnel. https://philipchircop.wordpress.com/2012/08/08/let-some-air-out-of-the-tyres/
Or is
just ‘business as usual’.
