Disability and Special Needs
Technical Assistance Conference
On Emergency Preparedness, Response, and Recovery
January 8-9, 2008
Capital Hilton, Washington, DC
The Disability and Special Needs Technical Assistance Conference will provide technical assistance on aspects of emergency management planning and response for people with disabilities and special needs. Recent disasters have made us aware of plans and operational procedures related to response and recovery to these populations in any natural or non-natural disaster. This conference will bring together Federal, State, and local experts to discuss day-to-day challenges in planing for their vulnerable populations. You will learn new concepts currently used or being developed to address disability and special needs planning in their jurisdictions.
