Coordinating the expertise of disaster planners and disability advocates
This is the text of a talk given at CrisisCamp Philadelphia in October 2009 examining the relationship between disaster preparedness personnel and the disability community. It discusses how disaster planners and disability advocates can enhance their relationships in the disaster planning process, and how disaster planners can use available tools and technologies improve their communication with the disability community.
The first thing both disaster planners and disability advocates must realize when approaching inclusive disaster planning is that everyone has the same goals, namely that in a disaster situation everyone wants as many people as possible to survive with a minimum of morbidity and to minimize the overall effects of the disaster on the community.
