To provide continued support during COVID-19, FEMA’s National Continuity Programs will moderate a Webinar on the Continuity of Operations (COOP) Planning for State and Local Governments. 

The two-part webinar event is being hosted by NACo and moderated by FEMA.

Part I: Introduction to COOP Planning

Part II: Explores more advanced COOP concepts

Thursday, June 18, 3:30 – 5:00pm EDT

COOP Planning during the COVID-19 pandemic will help your government to:

• Identify essential government functions
• Plan for operations with a reduced workforce
• Recommend areas in which to build staff redundancy
• Establish a devolution plan should staff become sick
• Consider the impacts of reduced revenue on programs and services
• Prepare for a traditional disaster scenario during the COVID-19 pandemic
• Develop planning assumptions for an effective 'return to normal' based on your timeline

Please join one or both of these ‘how-to’ discussions on developing new or modifying existing COOP plans for COVID-19 pandemic conditions. For more information, please read attached webinar details or register at https://register.gotowebinar.com/register/7344924997408414733.
