The workshops fall into two tracks:

  • NEW Recipients/Refresher track with presentations to support the learning and application of concepts for individuals and organizations new to managing HRSA grant awards.

  • Advanced track with presentations that will benefit individuals and organizations significantly experienced with grants management and looking for information and practices more in line with their seasoned level of expertise.

    As with last year, you can still sign up for any, and as many, presentations and sessions as you would like, regardless of your proficiency with grants management.

•             Clearly communicate the business rationale for the change and the benefits it can bring to team members and the organization.

•             Create an environment that is conducive to change in which team members are more readily prepared for change initiatives.

Hazard Vulnerability Analysis

How to Conduct a Hazard Vulnerability Analysis to Determine the Threats to Your Organization

Virtual • Wednesday, 6/28/23 • 1 pm - 2 pm
Part 4 of the Emergency Preparedness Series

Hazard Vulnerability Analysis (HVA) is a process used to identify potential hazards that can impact a community or an organization's operations. The analysis involves assessing the risks posed by natural, technological, or human-caused hazards. It is an essential component of emergency preparedness planning, enabling the identification of potential threats and areas of weakness. Through an HVA, organizations can develop plans for managing or mitigating the risks. This process includes identifying vulnerabilities, analyzing hazards, and assessing the likelihood and potential impact of each hazard. A well-executed HVA provides a comprehensive overview of potential hazards, enabling organizations to devise effective risk management strategies to ensure that they can continue to operate during and after an emergency.

  • This training is FREE to all WYPCA-member health centers and is session 4 of the 6-part Emergency Preparedness Plan Builder series.

  • Emergency Preparedness Leads at WYPCA-member Health Centers should attend.

  • This session is conducted by Connect Consulting Services, an industry leader in emergency planning and training.
