The face of emergency management today has never been more complex!

The All-Hazards, All-Stakeholders Summit will address the natural and man-made hazards facing the Houston area — fires, hurricanes, floods, terror events — and address best practices in preparing for and mitigating these crises.

Prepared organizations must not only plan internally, but must reach out to their “silos” to integrate planning with divergent and multi-disciplinary partners.

Topics Include:

• Innovative solutions and technology for improving community preparedness
• Best practices on collaborative emergency management planning
• Discuss the challenges and barriers to planning and preparedness integration across disciplines
• Discuss the latest DHS/FEMA initiatives
