Speaking of Sheltering

Posted by: admin

King County offers Faith Based
Emergency Preparedness Planning

As Hub Captains, we’ve been talking about how to engage our local churches, temples, and mosques in thinking about community sheltering needs in the event of a major disaster. This is for the short term, while the official government response is being put into place. One step on that path is to make sure the faith based organizations have thought about their own preparedness locations, for their facilities and their congregations. Here is an opportunity in March to help them take that first step:

 

King County Emergency Planning Institute Event

They are designed to strengthen the organization’s ability to effectively respond when facing the unexpected. Participants will gain a better understanding of what makes an effective preparedness plan, and develop a road map for improving existing plans and procedures.

 

Key objectives
