Our first Full Coalition Meeting was held in October of 2016 after a rigorous planning process to form the HMCC. We had great attendance and participation as we outlined our progress thus far, and highlighted what was coming for the HMCC in the near future. We were joined by Richard Smith from Yale New Haven Health Systems’ Center for Emergency Preparedness and Disaster Response, who offered a presentation: “Consolidating Plans & Processes Into Playbooks for Emergencies”.
