We mentioned in prior newsletters that our content is both national and specific to New York. Our office developed the emergency management disability awareness training for the state of New York through a grant from the Developmental Disabilities Planning Council. We maintain our role as an on-going resource. For more information contact our office. We also work with New York, Missouri, South Dakota and Virginia (LE) providing the Fire Fighter, EMS, 9-1-1, and Law Enforcement training. Our updated briefs are attached.
