Mark Benthien, Earthquake Country Alliance
The Earthquake Country Alliance has created a variety of earthquake safety messaging documents in the top 16 languages spoken and read in California, at www.EarthquakeCountry.org/languages. Each document is also accessible for people who use screen reader technology. Funding for the ongoing project is provided to the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services by FEMA (NEHRP) and subgranted to the Southern California Earthquake Center which administers ECA. This presentation will provide an overview of the process, lessons learned, and next steps.
