The National Resource Center on Advancing Emergency Preparedness for Culturally Diverse Communities is a joint initiative of the Drexel University School of Public Health’s Center for Health Equality and the United States Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of Minority Health.

The National Resource Center will serve as a central clearinghouse of resources and an exchange site to facilitate communication, networking and collaboration among key players working to build resilience and eliminate disparities for culturally diverse communities in emergencies. The site features hundreds of cross-referenced annotated resources in over 40 languages highlighting research, training and education opportunities, measurement and evaluation tools, effective risk communication strategies, and other successful programs and projects. http://www.diversitypreparedness.org/ [posted on CLAS-talk] scb
