Fwd: EMForum.org Program, June 27, 12:00 Noon Eastern -- SBA Disaster Assistance



U. S. Small Business Administration (SBA)
Disaster Assistance

for Homeowners, Renters, and Businesses of all Sizes


June 27, 2012 -- 12:00 Noon Eastern

EMForum.org is pleased to host a one hour presentation and interactive discussion Wednesday, June 27, 2012, beginning at 12:00 Noon Eastern time (please convert to your local time). Our topic will be the services that are provided by the U.S. Small Business Administration in the aftermath of a declared disaster, including low interest loans to businesses and individuals to repair or replace real estate, personal property, machinery and equipment, inventory and business assets that have been damaged or destroyed.

Our guests will include Kevin Wynne, Public Information Officer with the SBA's Disaster Assistance Office in Sacramento, CA since 2006. When disasters strike, Kevin travels to impacted communities to explain the SBA Disaster Loan Program and helps disaster victim's access and obtain long-term recovery assistance. Mr. Wynne joined the SBA just weeks after Hurricanes Katrina and Rita struck the Gulf Coast serving in the Loan Processing Department where he underwrote hundreds of disaster loan applications.

Also joining us is Mary "Kathy" Cook, Public Affairs Specialist with the SBA's Disaster Assistance Office in Atlanta, GA, where she is proactive in providing information on the Disaster Recovery Program as well as responding to inquiries from the media, government officials, and the public. Her experience with SBA exceeds 20 years during which time she served victims of some of the most devastating disasters including Hurricane Katrina, Hurricane Andrew, the Mid-West Floods, and the Terrorist Attacks of September 11, 2001.

Please make plans to join us, and see the Background Page for links to related resources and participant Instructions. On the day of the program, use the Webinar Login link not more than 30 minutes before the scheduled time. The password is attend. As always, please feel free to extend this invitation to your colleagues.

Fwd: Reminder to Register: Booz Allen Presents Ten Best Practices for Communication & Continuity During Mega-Disasters





Risk and Crisis Capability Header

RESCHEDULED: Booz Allen Presents Ten Best Practices for Communication & Continuity During Mega-Disasters


By Tim Tinker and Tony Dorsey

Sponsored by the Mission Assurance TFG and the RCCC 

 

Thursday, May 10, 2012

901 15th St. 10th Fl. 10005A

and Lync Online Meeting w/ Audio Conference 
 
To Register, email Una Hrnjak at hrnjak_una@bah.com

 

Urgent and catastrophic events, whether man-made or naturally occurring, dramatically change the rules of communication for Booz Allen's government, commercial, and not-for-profit clients. Anything less than full anticipation, preparation, and practice can jeopardize their credibility with employees, the media, and the general public. Worse, it can result in disrupted operations, harm strategic relationships, and cause irreparable damage to reputations.

 

Equipped with basic tools and techniques, however, Booz Allen helps clients across all markets effectively anticipate potential crises, and prepare and practice their system-wide communication responses. Attend this event to hear about a three-part strategy for assessing the threats, vulnerabilities, and consequences of high-stress, high-concern events and their implications for communications and continuity. This strategy can address public concerns, establish trust, and mitigate concern. 

 

Session Agenda

  • Communicating scientific & technical information
  • Understanding the media's needs & frustrations
  • Delivering messages that matter
  • Scenario-based simulation
Tim Tinker is located in Rockville, MD and can be reached at 301-444-4034 or tinker_timothy@bah.com.
