 FEMA
Region 3 hosts a webinar series for anyone who wants to reduce risk in
their community. These hour-long “Coffee Breaks” are held every other
month. They share mitigation best practices and highlight the work
happening at the federal, regional, state and community levels to
reduce risk in Region 3.
Coffee Break webinars are
open to anyone in the hazard mitigation, resiliency or risk reduction
planning fields. This work can be in the public or private sectors.
Community planners, emergency and floodplain managers, GIS technicians,
government officials, and contractors can attend.

Connecting Funding Opportunities to Mitigation Actions
Mitigation actions are one
of the most important parts of a hazard mitigation plan. They help to
assign responsibilities, create timelines, and set criteria for success.
FEMA's Hazard Mitigation Assistance (HMA) Grant Program provides funding
for eligible mitigation measures that reduce disaster losses. This
webinar will explore various funding opportunities, the projects they can
support, and mitigation alternatives.
WHEN: Wednesday, January 24 from 11 a.m.—12 p.m. ET
Attendees may be eligible
to receive one Continuing Education Credit. Those people must be:
Certified Floodplain Managers through the Association of State Floodplain
Management; or American Institute of Certified Planners who are certified
through the American Planning Association.
