courses. As this initiative continues to grow in popularity, you may have a class

Individuals with disabilities are often disproportionately affected by a disaster;
likewise, no two disabilities or vulnerable populations are alike and should not be
treated the same way. In this presentation on Dec. 5 from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., guest
speaker Daryl P. Schaffer will review what individuals with disabilities may need
before, during, or after a disaster as well as what they can give back to some professional
emergency career fields. Read more on the presenter and info on the coffee chat the following morning.
