Our Emergency Preparedness Team wants to hear from you! Join The Center for Independent Living (CIL) and the World Institute on Disability (WID) for a virtual community listening session focused on our “Disability Inclusive Emergency Preparedness and Community Perspectives” report.
In December 2024, CIL and WID published our long-awaited report, “Disability Inclusive Emergency Preparedness and Community Perspectives: Research and Outcomes in Alameda County.” This report was the outcome of a year-long process to better understand the current state of emergency preparedness and disaster resilience across disabled communities in Alameda County. Our report was developed through a deeply community-driven process, with the experiences of people with disabilities at the heart–and now, we want to hear from our communities what you think of the report!

Join us for a community listening session focused on our “Disability Inclusive Emergency Preparedness and Community Perspectives” report on Thursday, February 20th at 12:00 p.m. over Zoom. As part of this listening session, the CIL and WID teams will share a short summary of our report process, its findings, and next possible steps. Then, we’ll hear from you, our incredible community, any thoughts, reflections, questions, concerns you have regarding the report. What resonates? What did we miss? What are your thoughts on our recommendations and what’s next?
