WEBINAR

August 26th – Featuring Craig Fugate, Former FEMA Administrator

When Craig Fugate served as FEMA Administrator, he recognized the limitations of relying solely on government-led emergency management efforts across the nation. He had a visionary concept in which the public and private sectors could collaborate seamlessly for a more coordinated approach.

Today, the bureaucratic silos continue to persist, but initiatives like PSEMA have emerged to carry forward Craig’s pioneering vision. Join us for our upcoming September webinar to gain an intimate insight into this unique perspective and explore the innovative solutions currently in action.
