Being able to talk directly with rural people about their current and planned emergency preparedness was noted as particularly valuable by those in attendance."

“Absolute enthusiasm combined with long-held knowledge, a blend of listening to participants' questions while getting them to think outside the norm — while facilitating the workshops to perfection. Many participants called her sessions "the best ones yet" — which is impressive when you are the last series of six.”
