Offered by the Rural Domestic Preparedness Consortium, this course provides the background information needed to lead a multi-agency team of emergency planners in the development of an Emergency Support Functions annex for food and/or animal related disasters to supplement their community’s existing Emergency Operation Plans.
The course will address topics such as agroterrorism; detection and diagnosis; the unique challenges that rural communities face in planning for and responding to food and/or animal related disasters; utilization of Emergency Support Functions (ESF); recovery and the importance of sustainable operations during a disaster event; and mapping a community to identify areas of vulnerability and resources.
All content will be presented at an all-day instructor led training that will include presentations and problem-solving activities that will be worked on in small groups.
