Webinar: San Francisco Neighborhood Emergency Response Team Uses Twitter to Save Lives
Wednesday, April 5
3:00-4:30 p.m. EDT
FEMA’s Individual and Community Preparedness Division in partnership with the San Francisco Neighborhood Emergency Response Team (NERT) invites you to join the ”Using Twitter to Save Lives” training event. Members of the San Francisco NERT will share information on how volunteers can use Twitter during a disaster. This information includes how to quickly report and verify the most critical information within a 140-character limit. The team will also teach you how to gather and report information that can reduce the number of emergency calls to 911 to help make sure every call gets through to a response operator.
