HSMI to Host "Lunch and Learn" Sessions During Preparedness Month


National Preparedness Month (NPM) is sponsored by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Ready Campaign. NPM is held each September and is designed to encourage Americans to take simple steps to prepare for emergencies in their homes, businesses and communities.

The month will focus on important preparedness steps including:
Get an Emergency Supply Kit
Make a Family Emergency Plan
Be Informed
Get Involved
During the month of September and early October the Homeland Security Management Institute will share preparedness information with college faculty and staff.  The Institute plans on holding four separate “lunch and learn” sessions at the Public Safety Training Center from 1200-1:00PM in the STEP Conference Room. The sessions and lunch are free.  Staff and faculty can attend all four sessions or select only those they wish to attend. The sessions are limited to 25 attendees.

The four sessions and dates are as follows:
Business Continuity Planning -   Wednesday September 17, 2008
Biological Incident Response - Wednesday September 24, 2008
Cyber Security -                                   Wednesday October 1, 2008
Community Resilience -                        Wednesday, October 15, 2008
