Who We Serve

Emergency Managers

Essential Organizations

Kindergarten – College

Emergency Managers

Globally, the number and severity of disasters have increased, but resources for emergency management have not kept pace. This chronic underfunding leaves emergency managers constantly triaging priorities, leading to resource gaps that hinder society’s ability to cope with and recover from large-scale emergencies and disasters.

We strive to support our hard-working emergency managers in a variety of ways including but not limited to the following:

Disaster and Emergency Plan Development
Resource Mapping and Silo Reduction
Functional & Engaging ICS training
Tabletop Exercises and Drills
Project Management
Consulting
Public Outreach
EOC Support
After Action Reviews and Reports

Essential Organizations

We believe that those that give us identity, keep the fabric of our community functioning, and move us in the right direction should be just as prepared for hardship as large corporations and big-box stores. Additionally, we have seen that the level of preparedness of an organization and its members is directly tied to it’s stability, functionality and longevity. For more on how we support essential organizations, view our services offered.

A prevailing narrative suggests that climate change is overwhelming and frightening, with no clear path forward, and that leaders prioritize personal gain over the well-being of the planet and future generations. This perspective is unhelpful and needlessly alarming, promoting a vision of an inevitable and horrific future.

We believe that solutions can be found and that younger generations can have successful prosperous futures in developing those solutions. Our aim is to help them do so in a variety of ways.
