Responding to the Disabilities and Access and
Functional Needs Community
Wednesday February 5, 2025 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM
ET
Please join FEMA Region 2 in
partnership with the National CERT Association (NCA) and California Office
of Emergency Services (Cal OES) for a webinar discussion about Responding
to the Disabilities and Access and Functional Needs Community.
During this presentation,
attendees will learn about how New Jersey has embraced the whole community
philosophy by engaging people with disabilities and access and functional
needs (DAFN) in its CERT program. By starting at the municipal level, these
CERTs help improve and enhance emergency preparedness and response
efforts—from helping individuals with DAFN create personal preparedness
plans to ensuring accessibility is restored following disasters. Strategies
on how to best involve and serve individuals with DAFN in relation to the
CERT program in other States will be discussed.
Who should attend? Local, State, Federal government,
Community and Faith-based Organizations, Emergency Managers, CERT Leads,
Program Managers and volunteers.
