Program Overview

A new push for personal preparedness is also underway across the nation so it seems with all of the preparing going on, no one should be left behind or uncertain of what to do when it comes to being prepared for an emergency. But it turns out there is one part of the population that emergency personnel are still learning about when it comes to disaster response – and that’s those with special needs.
