Emergency Preparedness for People with Disabilities

The Emergency Response Preparedness Self-Assessment Instrument
(http://rtc.umn.edu/erp)

A newly developed online tool designed for use by state disability
services
officials nationwide to determine the extent to which their agency¹s
emergency preparedness plans address issues critical to the support and
protection of persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities
during disaster or crisis. While designed primarily for state agencies,
it
may also be useful to community service providers and others. A
demonstration version can be found online, as well as more information
about
the tool. Developed by a partnership between the National Association
of
State Directors of Developmental Disabilities Services and the
Institute¹s
Research and Training Center on Community Living
