About Event
Pathways to Survival - the Right to Get Out: Access in evacuation is survival. We’ll examine barriers (transportation, communication, shelters, support networks), reframe evacuation as a human right, and share lived experiences and solutions.
- Evacuation is a human right
- Inclusive planning saves lives
- Stories show the power of access
We will have a panel of disabled people sharing their experiences, creative ideas, and concerns.
