This introductory course provides a foundational understanding of Access and Functional Needs (AFN) in emergency planning. The course explores who may have AFN during emergencies, why inclusive planning matters, and how to begin addressing barriers in communication, transportation, sheltering, and medical access. Participants will be introduced to the CMIST framework, key legal requirements, and strategies for engaging community stakeholders using a Whole Community approach. No prior knowledge of AFN is required.
A free NEMTEC account is required.
