description This project cultivated a foundational level of training that will grow as an integral part of the University of Georgia Cooperative Extension’s organizational commitment to provide systemic readiness in support of the emergency response. The development of four geographically dispersed, specially trained small teams within the University of Georgia Extension System built capacity for readiness, response, and recovery to natural disasters and local emergencies. These teams help facilitate a timely and skilled response to the needs of employees and stakeholders before, during, and after natural disasters and local emergency events. Specialized training continues to be provided to all team members.
