The FCBA Homeland Security and Emergency Communications Committee will sponsor a CLE on Wednesday, June 8 from 3:00 – 5:00 p.m. ET entitled Implementing 988 and the Future of Tailored Emergency Communications. This program will be held virtually via the Zoom platform.
This CLE will include speakers from the FCC, the National 911 Program, South Sound 911, RapidSOS and T-Mobile. The first panel will focus on how 988 came to be, where we are today, and what needs to happen to fully implement 988. The second panel will cover the future tailored emergency communications and will explore how an individual may convey information about themselves when they make an emergency call so that first responders are aware and can respond in a tailored way.
If you have any issues, please contact Elizabeth Hagerty at elizabeth@fcba.org.
