Meeting Level: MR 3

The goal of the SIG is to network, collaborate, and share resources among SIG members, and to develop strategies for collaborations with local and state emergency and public health preparedness personnel, disability organizations, and other Community Based Organizations (CBO). By collaborating SIG members aim to strengthen inclusive emergency preparedness and response and ensure that people with disabilities have a seat at the table for all phases of the disaster and climate adaptation cycle.

SIGs, which are open to anyone in the AUCD Network as well as external partners and stakeholders, serve as a mechanism for sharing information, engaging in respectful dialogue, and generating new ideas.
