I'm still traveling so I'm still running behind with getting things from my email and Twitter feeds to post. Below is information about a workshop and webcast being hosted this week on integrating whole community practices. I was able to watch parts of last year's webcast (this year I'll be in training or on a plane so I'll miss the live version) and the discussions were outstanding. If you have time to log on for even a few of the sessions I highly recommend it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Office of Disability Integration and Coordination ODIC at the Federal Emergency Management Agency and our co-sponsors, the National Council on Disability NCD and the National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research NIDRR and our partners the Interagency Coordinating Council on Emergency Preparedness and People with Disabilities ICC and the Emergency Management Institute EMI are hosting Getting Real II - Promising Practices in Inclusive Emergency Management for the Whole Community, September 12-14, 2011 in Arlington, VA.
This year, we’re particularly excited to have a webcast generously supported by the National Council on Disability available for people who cannot join us in person. This webcast will include many of the Promising Practices presentations (and all will be videotaped for “on demand” viewing after the conference).
