Sign Up to be Part of the National Pandemic Formidable Footprint Exercise on Jan 28 2012
On January 28 neighborhood, community and faith based organizations across the country will have the opportunity to assess their capabilities in preparing for and responding to an Influenza Pandemic by participating in the Formidable Footprint Pandemic Exercise.
During the past year teams from across the United States have been participating in the internet based series of Formidable Footprint exercises. These exercises have provided participants with the opportunity to assess their capabilities to respond to various disaster threats.
Exercises have also been scheduled for the following scenarios:
Earthquake – Flood – Hurricane – Tornado – Wildfire
The Formidable Footprint exercise series has been developed in accordance with Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program (HSEEP) protocols. The objectives of the exercises are for CERTs, Neighborhood Watch Programs, Neighborhood Associations, Community / Faith Based Organizations, Citizen Corps, Fire Corps and others to work as a team to become better prepared for the next disaster their community may face.
There is NO CHARGE for participation in any of the Formidable Footprint exercises.
This is a great way for your congregation to serve your community and engage members in ways that will help your congregation be a significant contributor during area disasters.
