Course Overview:

This four-hour, virtual, instructor-led course will provide participants with basic information on community preparedness within the unique context of Tribal Nations, highlighting the diverse approaches to resilience across different communities. The course will provide an overview of federal resources available to Tribal Nations, including tools, programs, and additional support mechanisms designed to enhance emergency preparedness and response.

By examining these key areas, the course aims to equip Tribal leaders and emergency managers with the knowledge and skills needed to bolster their communities' resilience and readiness for various emergencies.
