Beyond the Plan: Maintaining a Culture of Preparedness

This webinar will outline practical every day strategies for maintaining a culture of preparedness and avoiding common pitfalls that lead to unusable emergency plans and difficult responses. 

These include:  

1. Planning beyond every day hazards (secondary disasters, Natech, and other complications)
2. Avoiding the pitfalls of so-called "fantasy documents"
3. Engaging and building relationships with first responders that extend beyond the mutual aid agreement
