The Redi to Adapt workshop supports service providers to strengthen their knowledge, resilience and capacity during emergencies. This session is for early childhood services, schools and child & family service professionals.

The workshop is delivered through three modules: the impact of disasters, organisational preparedness, and supporting resilient clients.


Participants will learn how to:

· Understand local hazards and risks relevant to your organisation.

· Develop or refine an emergency plan suited to your service and client needs.

· Engage staff, carers, and clients in preparedness activities.
