Does your agency use Incident Action Plans (IAP)? Not quite sure what an IAP is? Why is a situation status report (Sit Stat) so important? Find out in this training as our disaster response experts offer important guidance to prepare you for your next emergency.

Join Ryan Soulsby, CalAnimals Disaster Program Manager, and Brian Whipple, Sonoma County Animal Services, as they discuss the function of the Incident Action Plan and Situation Status Report and how it could benefit your disaster operations. The training will be a basic overview of each section of the documents, a discussion of who creates the documents and how the information is gathered, who and how the documents are disseminated, and leave the training with a basic editable template for your IAP and Sit Stat.
