The Region Seven goal is to develop collaborative partnerships with response agencies throughout our Region to better prepare for any large-scale public health emergencies. Sharing drills exercises and training opportunities helps prepare new hires and maintain and update our current emergency responders.

PIO Workshop Free! July 24 or 31

Attached is a save-the-date flyer for an upcoming risk communications and media training being brought to Region 7. Once we have the actual sites booked and the registration up, we'll send out an updated flyer with time, location and registration information. We want you to consider bringing a team of people from your organization. This workshop has been held several times on the west side of the state, with great reviews. Yes it's free and yes we'll feed you lunch! Feel free to pass this along to others in your county. Priority will be given to healthcare, public health, fire, EMS, EM, law enforcement and elected officials in Grant, Kittitas, Chelan, Douglas and Okanogan counties.
