Event Details
Mitigation actions are one of the most important parts of a hazard mitigation plan. They help to assign responsibilities, create timelines, and set criteria for success. FEMA’s Hazard Mitigation Assistance (HMA) Grant Program provides funding for eligible mitigation measures that reduce disaster losses. This webinar will explore various funding opportunities, the projects they can support, and mitigation alternatives.
FEMA Region 3 hosts a webinar series for anyone who wants to reduce risk in their community. These hour-long “Coffee Breaks” are held every other month. They share mitigation best practices and highlight the work happening at the federal, regional, state and community levels to reduce risk in Region 3.
Coffee Break webinars are open to anyone in the hazard mitigation, resiliency or risk reduction planning fields. This work can be in the public or private sectors. Community planners, emergency and floodplain managers, GIS technicians, government officials, and contractors can attend.
Please note:
- Webinar log in/call in information will be sent out several days prior to the date of the Coffee Break.
- Attendees may be eligible to receive continuing education credits.
