Might be my favorite slide I've ever made - time for local level EM visibility and accountability!

If there was one take away - it was to know their LOCAL office. Plans. Budget. Staff. Operations.

Locally RAN- fed SUPPORTED.

Grateful to speak at @towsonu.bsky.social last eve on WX and how we apply it in the public space to keep people safe. But also an opportunity to edu on Emergency Management, why we exist in government, and that DISASTERS START LOCAL!
