This course is designed to train emergency managers and other interested individuals who have no specialized technical background, but can support mitigation efforts as advocates. The course provides activities and exercises that build the participant's abilities to perform the tasks and responsibilities for the emergency manager's role, create long-term strategies for disaster-resistant communities, identify local mitigation opportunities, select mitigation solutions to hazard risk problems, and find resources to carry out mitigation activities in the post-disaster environment.
