J.I. (2014) Emergency
Registries – NEW - an expanded
discussion of
emergency registry content and recommendations covered in Getting
it Wrong: An Indictment with a Blueprint for Getting It Right
(2018).
Covers the challenges and shortcomings of existing emergency registries
with
examples from recent hurricanes in Texas and Florida, as well as other
disasters. Recommendations focus on the need to look beyond emergency
registries to the new, ubiquitous technologies that more easily connect
people
with disabilities and others with access and functional needs to the
supports
and assistance they need in their communities before, during, and after
a
significant emergency.
