Event Details

Planning for short and long term recovery after a public health emergency or disaster is as important as the initial planning for a response. Emergency preparedness plans should incorporate recovery and such efforts should be implemented while response efforts are still underway. Part of those recovery efforts include supporting communities as they return to a new reality. This webinar will provide tips and resources on recovery plans from development to implementation.
