Michigan State Police Conducting AWR 232: Mass Fatalities Planning and Response for Rural Communities

3/6/2023

0 Comments

 
The Michigan State Police – Emergency Management Homeland Security Division (MSP-EMHSD) is bringing the following federal course to Michigan in 2023.
​

Registration is required- see flyer for registration details.
AWR 232 is an 8-hour, DHS/FEMA-certified, tuition-free, awareness-level course. The goal of this course is to teach participants the basics of mass fatality response while providing opportunities to exchange rural perceptions and brainstorm solutions to simulated emergencies. Responding to a mass fatality incident, which includes the recovery, identifications, and reunification of the deceased, is one of the most difficult aspects of disaster response. In times of crisis, small, rural, and tribal communities are often ill-equipped with facilities to manage large numbers of casualties. When the time comes, communities must be prepared to use available resources to properly manage the remains that will result. Regardless of the agencies or organizations that respond, whether they be governmental agencies or private or non-governmental organizations (NGOs), the responsibility to coordinate and manage these outside resources rests with local authorities
