Natural Disaster Awareness for Community Leaders Training Offered Virtually

The four-and-a-half hour training is offered virtually at no cost to eligible participants. The course is meant to increase understanding of disasters, risk assessment in the context of disaster management, prevailing emergency management procedures and operations, and the different vulnerability factors. Attendees will be familiarized with the available resources for natural disaster preparedness and planning, learn how to recognize and define the roles and responsibilities that may be expected to be assumed by a community leader and understand the roles that first responders and other support personnel are likely to assume in the response and recovery phase of an emergency.
