Webinar: Nontraditional Emergency Shelters and People with Disabilities<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Great Lakes ADA Center is pleased to announce that the next session in the Emergency Preparedness Webinar Series is scheduled for May 8, 2014.<\/p>\n

This series is brought to you through a collaboration between the Great Lakes ADA Center and the Pacific ADA Center, members of the ADA National Network.<\/p>\n

Topic: Nontraditional Emergency Shelters and People with Disabilities<\/p>\n

Date: May 8, 2014<\/p>\n

Time: 2:00pm-3:30pm ET (EASTERN) or 1:00pm – 2:30pm CT (CENTRAL)<\/p>\n

Description:<\/p>\n

Disasters can be unpredictable in scope, scale and size. In most cases, traditional shelters will meet an incident’s need. However, in some disasters, there may be a need to establish non-traditional shelters to meet<\/p>\n

1) Disaster survivors’ immediate needs or 2) the need to locate residents closer to their community during the recovery phase.<\/p>\n

Nontraditional shelters may include soft sided structures in open areas as well as mega-shelter sites. Each presents a unique set of circumstances which require specific planning in order to meet the needs of people with disabilities and others with<\/span> access and functional needs. This webinar will identify specific planning considerations relative to nontraditional sheltering in order to adequately meet the needs of the whole community.<\/p>\n

Learning Objectives:<\/p>\n

* Identify functional needs support services (FNSS) planning
\n* considerations for a nontraditional shelter response
\n* Identify specific issues that will need to be discussed, in advance,\u00a0with partners and vendors to ensure accessibility and accommodation for people with disabilities and others with access and functional needs
\n*Identify FNSS related considerations when conducting long term nontraditional shelter operations<\/p>\n
