Hurricane Forum
Proceedings Available Online
JAN. 27, 2006 | A
report of the Dec. 5
Rural Early Childhood Forum on Hurricane
Recovery and Emergency Preparedness is now
available online.
The report contains summaries of forum
discussions on reconstruction, portability of
child care subsidies for displaced families,
mental health intervention, and future emergency
preparedness.
“The forum was a preliminary, informal
opportunity for interested governmental and
nongovernmental participants in early childhood
hurricane recovery to come together and share
ideas,” Cathy Grace, Ed.D., professor and
director of the Mississippi State University
Early Childhood Institute, said. “We hope that
publication of the proceedings of the forum will
be helpful as we work together to promote greater
emergency preparedness for early care and
education nationwide.”
