New York City Emergency Management Department reposted this
🚒 Our I-DIEM HERricane NYC participants got an exclusive look at New York City Emergency Management Department's Emergency Support Center (ESC). From hands-on experience with emergency support vehicles to understanding resource management during crises, we learned how New York City tackles emergencies head-on. Some highlights of our trip included exploring the ESC, learning about Urban Search and Rescue, understanding multi-agency coordination, and of course, meeting Zero the therapy turtle (the real MVP!) Big thanks to Director Sidney Ko, Ezequiel Urena, and Michael Beilinson at the NYCEM ESC for this eye-opening experience and to our sponsors Farmers Insurance for their continued support of the I-DIEM HERricane program #DisasterResponse #EmergencyManagement #HERricaneNYC #HERricane #NYCEM #WomenInEmergencyManagement #WomenInEM #WeAreFarmers #HERricane2024 #HERricaneNewYorkCity
