How the state and tribal organizations respond to disasters | Alaska Insight

Season 8 Episode 12 | 26m 46s

For emergency managers, it’s not a matter of if, but when the next big disaster will strike. Alaskans are keenly aware of the risk and damage that can come from powerful natural disasters. On this Alaska Insight, we talk with state and tribal emergency response managers about how they’re strengthening partnerships to help during and after a severe event.
