VEMS 2022 - So are you one of those doomsday preppers? (Breakout Session-H3)

Is all preparedness the same? Does emergency management hold a monopoly on effective emergency preparedness? What are the differences and similarities between building a "culture of preparedness" and the prepper sub-culture? Is there a conflict between those goals? An exploration of the motivating factors behind preparedness, how to make it effective and long-lasting, and what we as emergency managers can do to help individuals in that goal.

Speaker: Nat Sellers, UVa Medical Center Emergency Coordinator
