OCHA Haïti . Hurricane Matthew - Situation Report. November 30, 2016.
Domestic Violence. A marker as simple as how someone treats their pets.
Although domestic abuse has seen a decline in recent years,
there are still millions — millions — of Americans who endure it each year. Not
only is it a terrible way way to live — domestic violence victims never deserve
to be abused, period — it’s behavior that should never be tolerated.
To show our support for those in abusive relationships, we wanted to share some helpful articles that we hope will provide some hope:
If you are a victim of domestic violence, please know that you deserve better, and there are many ways to get the help you need. If you’re not comfortable contacting your local law enforcement agency, consider reaching out to an anonymous hotline:
The National Domestic Violence Hotline: 1-800-799-SAFE (1-800-799-7233)

Emmitsburg, MD — You
are subscribed to EMI News for FEMA. The following information has recently
been updated, and is now available on http://training.fema.gov/EMI/
Course Description:
The Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) recognizes the need to tie training programs to an
established set of emergency management competencies and to a career
development program through a progressive training and education system that
includes the Basic Academy. The Emergency Management Institute (EMI) is
offering the opportunity to students who are experienced in emergency
management and adult training to take a step toward becoming qualified as an
instructor for the Basic Academy courses.
The first day of the
Train-the-Trainer is devoted to course delivery strategy, logistics,
demonstrations, and adult learning methods. The last four days will consist
of student teach-backs that summarize a portion of the Basic Academy course
subject matter, and describe activities and exercises plus time for critique
and questions. These assignments are made in advance of the first day of
class.
All topics covered in the
course are covered from an instructor’s perspective in the Train-the-Trainer
including at a minimum: history, legal issues, intergovernmental and
interagency context, influencing, organizing, social vulnerability issues,
managing stress, collaboration, planning, exercises, public information and
warning, preparedness, team building, protection and prevention, mitigation,
response, ethical decision-making, recovery, technology, administration, and
the future of emergency management.
