Stakeholder engagement report: Emergency management

The New Jersey Climate Adaptation Alliance is developing a compendium of state and local public policy recommendations to enhance climate change preparedness in New Jersey. The Alliance solicited input from stakeholders in the Emergency Management sector in order to gauge sector-specific perceptions of climate change impacts and to gain insight on policy changes that are needed in New Jersey to allow the Emergency Management sector to better prepare for and respond to a changing climate. Stakeholder outreach included an in-person listening session as well as an online survey. Participants were asked about their perceptions of climate change impacts, preparedness,and policy priorities.New Jersey Climate Adaptation Alliance (NJCAA). 2013.Stakeholder Engagement Report: Emergency Management.
