The COVID-19 pandemic has raised questions regarding sufficient disaster preparedness for vulnerable populations. Three roundtables/forums within the Health and Medicine Division at the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine are hosting a series of three, one-hour webinars on this topic.

Today’s webinar, the second in the series, will focus on home health workers providing services to individuals living with disabilities and older adults.

The third and final webinar, to be held on July 15, will consider the needs of individuals living with disabilities and older adults, and efforts to include these populations in disaster planning.
