Resiliency and Recovery Forum
Hosted by Joel Yonkman. Each episode takes one real event, a flood, a long power outage, a wildfire, a new industrial site, and asks the people who handled it what they learned and what they would do differently.
Joel has spent more than thirty years on the response side: tactical EMS, teaching incident command at the DHS Center for Domestic Preparedness, and serving as Planning Section Chief on FEMA Region VI's Incident Management Assistance Team.
