Navigating FEMA Before and After a Disaster

At some point, all communities will eventually face natural disasters that challenge even the most prepared teams and best made plans.

However, accessing the full extent of these programs can be difficult, complex, and confusing.

Attend this session to hear about the federal resources available to help communities when disaster strikes, how this may be changing in the future, and lessons learned from other governments navigating FEMA's policies and procedures.
