Part of our Winter Webinar 2020 Series
Disaster Preparedness
Tornados, flooding, and severe storms are just a few examples of hazards in Wisconsin that can impact housing across the state. This webinar will help you understand how to reduce risk at the affiliate and homeowner levels, as well as what to consider to launch a successful disaster response program that provides real solutions to real needs. We’ll discuss what tools and resources HFHI has to support your disaster preparedness and response needs, considerations for your decision making on whether or not to respond, coordination with other agencies, and more!
