Thrive RISE (Resilience in Shared Emergencies)

Monthly Meeting

Wednesday, April 26, 10:00 - 11:30 am, Virtual

Join the countywide coalition of Community Organizations Active in Disasters (COAD), Thrive RISE for our April Monthly Meeting. We'll be going over some lessons learned from the storms and developing goals for how the COAD can support community risk reduction moving forward. All organizations are welcome, regardless of sector or experience in responding to community emergencies.

Special Session: Coordinating Childcare in Disasters
The disasters our communities have experienced this winter have reminded us once again just how vulnerable the childcare sector is to shock events like flooding, power outages, and acts of violence. When childcare facilities shut down, parents, including first responders, are unable to work and children miss out on important peer social and learning time. Coordinating alternative childcare spaces in disasters is crucial to meeting the economic and socio-emotional needs of families during emergencies. Thrive RISE, in partnership with Project Camp, is laying the groundwork to be able to launch temporary childcare spaces during emergencies, but this work requires the engagement and participation of education, childcare, and other community stakeholders.
 
Join us at the next Thrive RISE meeting, April 26, 10:00 - 11:30 am, for this special session on coordinating childcare in disasters. Participants will also have the opportunity to share other organizational updates. All are welcome!
 
Open to all. Registration is not required for these recurring meetings.
