Participants will learn how a properly managed and executed family assistance plan can boost their organizations’ public image and assist with the successful resolution of a crisis. The session will help organizations identify ways to effectively respond to information inquiries, while ensuring that other response and recovery operations can proceed. Attendees will review case studies outlining best practices companies have implemented to account for people in the past and will learn how these strategies are currently being used.

She also coordinates the people support and psychological first aid services for those impacted by crises, and she is responsible for developing drills and exercises aimed at testing current plans and procedures.
