Drought Planning

Strategies: CC

F Model

Goal for Today’s Working Session 1. To be introduced to the new CDC’s Preparing for the Health

Effects of Drought: A Resource Guide for Public Health Officials and to explore how it might use for your health department or jurisdiction

2. For the organizers to better understand what your agency and your stakeholders would find useful in terms of future drought planning resources related to health

NATIONAL DROUGHT MITIGATION CENTER

Working Agenda

• Local Voices: Mariposa and Tulare Counties Drought Response and Recovery Efforts

• CDC Data Resources Guide Overview • Module 1 Overview • Facilitated Discussion • Module 5 Overview & Discussion • Modules 2 & 3 Overview • Facilitated Discussion (Lessons Learned, Infographic

Resources) • Workshop Closing (Post Evaluation and Moving

Forward)

NATIONAL DROUGHT MITIGATION CENTER

Module 1: Conducting or Contributing to a Hazard and

Vulnerability Assessment

Considerations:

• The role of data and impact monitoring (Module 4) What is most suitable or needed? (Worksheet 1)

• What steps are recommended to conduct a Hazard and Vulnerability assessment and are they applicable? How can they be adapted to better suit your needs?

(Worksheet 2)

Questions: Who and what is the most vulnerable in your community or jurisdiction related to drought? How would you start this process? Who should be involved in your hazard and vulnerability assessment planning? What is needed to help you start this process? How can you obtain these resources? (later discussion, module 5)

Facilitated Discussion 1

Module 5: How to find funding and resources

Considerations:

• Develop a needs based fundraising plan

• Research and identify funders

Questions: What resources do you have to help integrate drought into your health activities? What resources are needed? How can you better identify these resource needs?

WHAT' S WRONG

Modules 2 &3 : Communications and Collaborations

Considerations for Communications:

• Be active in creating or updating your region’s drought communication plan

• Be active in drought engagement within your community (before, during, and after) & meet your audience

• Use a variety of communication outlets (text messaging, social media, websites)

• Tone and timing of messages

Facilitated Discussion 3

Modules 2 &3 : Communications and Collaborations

Considerations for Collaborations:

• Getting involved in a regional drought planning task force

• Get involved early and explore the integration of health into larger planning efforts

• Be an information provider for drought and health

• Work with others who are interested and/or active in these efforts

• Build off your response efforts for future planning and mitigation efforts

• Educate and collaborate outside of your “comfort” zone

Questions: What did you hear from the local “testimonies” related to drought and health help you better understand the role of communications and collaborations? What other resources are available to help you in these processes? (CDC and others?)

Facilitated Discussion 3

Final Activities: Post Evaluation & Moving Forward

Before Leaving:

• Fill out the post evaluation so we can better understand your future needs and how to better serve other regions of stakeholders

Questions: Please take a notecard and describe at least two things you plan to do after leaving this drought and health workshop. For those on the web cast, you can type them in the chat box.
