This HHS Aging and Disability Planning Toolkit is to serve as a resource to guide the aging and disability networks in increasing their ability to plan for and respond to public health emergencies and disasters. For organizations already engaged in emergency planning, this Toolkit can help expand and improve their capabilities. For organizations new to emergency planning, this Toolkit will help orient them to the process.
Each step of a disaster is covered thoroughly, from early planning to effective communication during a crisis and finally the recovery from an emergency.
