Crisis Coordinators

Crisis Coordinators are campus personnel who have volunteered to serve as immediate responders in case of an emergency and are trained to a specific level to ensure their ability to handle emergency situations. They provide immediate assistance to their building and departments during an emergency situation, such as an evacuation, shelter-in-place, or secure-in-place situation. Crisis Coordinators assist the Office of Emergency Management in mitigating the immediate situation until the arrival of first responders and then continue to support those trained responders throughout the incident. They also serve as an invaluable resource for educating the faculty and staff or their respective buildings regarding emergency preparedness and proper response to emergencies.

For more information on the Crisis Coordinator program, please contact Omar-Shariff Roberts.
