Emergency Preparedness

When thinking about disaster preparedness and recovery, colleges and universities are no different than traditional businesses - they should not operate without a disaster plan. In developing your institution's plan, keep these three elements in mind: the human toll, physical resources, and business continuity. NACUBO's Emergency Preparedness resource page helps you develop or refine your plan, respond to and recover from an emergency, and reduce risk through mitigation.
