(It is sometimes easier to listen while driving or doing chores, like folding laundry or doing dishes. Feel free to do so!)

Reflect on the following:

  1. What act stuck out to you the most? Why?
  2. What would you find the most challenging as someone involved in Emergency Management or as part of a Recovery team?
  3. How might these experiences have been better prevented?
  4. What can we do to build more resilient communities BEFORE a disaster strikes so the impact of such a disaster is lessened? 
  5. What must be done AFTER a disaster in this context to build community recovery and resilience?
