New toolkit released from the US Department of Education on Creating and Updating School Emergency Management Plans
The REMS Technical Assistance Center's primary goal
is to support schools, school districts, and institutions of higher
education in school emergency management, including the development and
implementation of comprehensive all-hazards emergency management plans.
The TA Center disseminates information about school emergency management
to help individual schools, school districts, and institutions of
higher education learn more about developing, implementing, and
evaluating comprehensive, all-hazards school emergency management plans.
In addition, the TA Center helps OSHS coordinate technical assistance
meetings and share school emergency management information, and responds
to direct requests for technical assistance and training.
The Pass It On Center, in Atlanta, Georgia is developing an emergency response system based on an existing network of Assistive Technology (AT) Centers across the United States. We are in collaboration with many agencies across the country, actively working on a national database of equipment for emergencies, and assisting with current national emergencies.
