Your radio station is important to its community. Arguably, it serves its most crucial purpose before, during, and after natural and human-made disasters. From providing breaking-news broadcasts to being present when locals need help, our panel of experts will show you how they have connected with area first responders, put themselves in the mix during disaster response, and offered innovations like text-based emergency alerts on a variety of platforms, including smart car dashboards and mobile phones. You’ll come away with new ways your station can be involved in emergency preparedness; in cultivating financial support for your initiatives; and how to make the biggest difference possible with the fewest resources.
