PREPAREDNESS PLANS

A preparedness plan can take many shapes, but should be customized for your practice or organization. It is the result of assessing your risks, identifying your priority operations and assets, and making decisions about how you will respond to any type of natural, technological or human-caused crisis. Through these workshops, and with your own existing skills and abilities, you will have what you need to craft your own emergency preparedness plan; submission of this plan to the DCA is a requirement of this program. NCAPER will offer a confidential review of your draft plan and provide feedback to help you make your plan as strong as possible. 

Information about this process will be available in June.
