JVSO presents at National Conference on Emergency Preparedness and Assistance
With over 500 attendees at the virtual Village to Village Network National Conference in October 2022, JVSO was one of the main presenters during the three-day virtual conference. Jo Hewett, President of JVSO presented on behalf of JVSO along with two other Villages from Sausalito, California, and Madison Wisconsin sharing our experiences in improving Villages’ responses to emergency situations.
JVSO provided specific examples and tangible suggestions in the area of communication with special emphasis on the new texting capabilities and follow-up measures to ensure a connection with all our members during an emergency. The second speaker from Sausalito, California reviewed the mapping features with identified zone captains. JVSO administrators also utilize these maps on the JVSO emergency plan. Lastly, Madison, Wisconsin, shared important “Grab and Go” items that we all should have ready in the event of an unexpected emergency.
Below is the hyperlink for the “Emergency Preparedness and Assistance” session. It takes only 45 minutes to watch with JVSO being the first 15 minutes. Hope you can find the time to view for it is quite impressive to learn how JVSO cares for its members.
