On Wednesday, June 27th, 2018, from 2:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. ET, ED’s OSHS and REMS TA Center hosted a Webinar on how schools and school districts can better prepare for an evacuation after an emergency.

Presenters in this Webinar discussed issues related to identifying on- and off-site assembly areas; transportation considerations, such as the use of mutual aid agreements; meeting the needs of students with disabilities or access and functional needs; and shared lessons at the local level.

This one-hour Webinar included a PowerPoint presentation as well as a Question and Answer session following the presentation and a Community of Practice Web Chat.
