Course Description
This one-day course covers the activities usually performed by local governments after the emergency response to a disaster has peaked and the long–term activities (called recovery) begin. Recovery may commence while the emergency response is still ongoing; however, recovery activities usually require different knowledge, skills and abilities than response activities, and are usually performed by a different team of people. This course identifies the types of local government officials who may serve on a disaster recovery team and describes their roles and responsibilities as a member of that team

Intended Audience
Municipal and County Emergency Management Directors and Program Assistants, Police, Fire, Military and Emergency Medical Service personnel with responsibility for either planning, training, or command, elected and appointed officials, representatives from Public Works, Highway Dept., public utilities, hospital and nursing home staff with planning, training and/or security responsibilities, representatives from private industry, as well as volunteer agencies and police, fire, Emergency Medical Service and nursing instructors from local colleges, technical colleges and universities.
