New Disaster Preparedness and Response Workgroup forms

From pandemics to droughts, floods and wildfires, UC ANR is well-positioned to help Calfiornians cope with disasters.

Disasters are increasingly common in California, ranging from droughts, floods and wildfires to human health (e.g. COVID-19). Given the frequency of disasters in California, it is important that UC ANR is prepared to engage before, during, and after emergencies across the state.  

The new UC ANR Workgroup on Disaster Preparedness and Response will create a forum to bring together colleagues across multiple disciplines to support our communities through trainings, grants, research and extension projects.  

If you are interested in joining the workgroup, please contact co-chairs Sabrina Drill at sldrill@ucanr.edu or Tracy Schohr at tkschohr@ucanr.edu.
