In preparation for National Preparedness Month in September, members of NAPO-GPC received intensive training in emergency preparedness from Sam Levy, M.Ed, a former military intelligence officer. The two-hour workshop included simulated crisis planning and instructions for professional organizers to prepare their families and clients for an event of either natural or manmade disaster, including how to assemble an emergency kit.
