"Very helpful information."
"I most appreciated the answers provided to questions and specific information on FEMA's plans for rolling out things in the future." "Very interesting information. Great to hear about new initiatives like this; to stay current in the field. Thanks." "Recent sessions by Aniskoff and Lumpkins have been very effective in sharing with us subjects on which FEMA is focused." "Excellent topic and is extremely pertinent in moving the U.S. disaster readiness to a higher level through community-based engagement and leadership, especially considering all disasters are local and need to be managed by the locals initially." "Excellent and informative. Alternatives for grassroots organizations' involvement, outside of Citizen Corps or Certs is appreciated, i.e. modular training with Urban League, Churches, etc." "It would be helpful in the future if the presenter actually discussed what each of the points on the slide actually mean in 'real' language." "Was interested in finding out how we can start our community (CERT) program and thought this may be a good listening session. This was excellent and I really appreciate it. Keep up the good work! Thank you." "The medium of the program is better suited for presentation rather than discussion. The information presented was helpful but the Q&A session did not promote a discussion." "I'd like to the hear the summary of the discussions - what people have to say around the country. I also think that a toolkit to hold discussions locally would be a terrific asset!" "As a first time user to Live Meeting, it was a little confusing to access the slides." "Will there be specialized personnel operating this activity for FEMA?" "Specifics on upcoming discussions would be helpful: when, where, who is participating. Thanks!" "Good information. Timely and relevant. Hope we can help support Paulette's efforts!" "Very informative and timely presentation." |
