All-Hazards Preparedness & Response Education Program (APREP)
The New York Extension Disaster Education Network links extension educators, emergency managers, and community officials to enhance resilience and reduce the impact of disasters in New York communities.Cornell University’s NY Extension Disaster Education Network (NY EDEN) developed a comprehensive system to rapidly collect targeted information about agricultural sector emergencies. This system has been integrated into efforts to develop a state wide Cornell Cooperative Extension standard operating procedure and all-hazards protocol. We created and disseminated the Ag Sentinel Agriculture Emergency Situation Reporting tool for use by CCE Association personnel and their local networks. The data gathered from the tool is collated by the Ag Sentinel CCE County Point of Contact (POC) and entered into the Ag Sentinel DashBoard.
