Wk 1 Discussion

Prior to beginning work on this discussion, review the goals and objectives as outlined in the DHS Strategic Plan: FY2020-2024. Then read Chapter 3 of your primary text; Bullock talks about hazards in Chapter 3 of your text. Hazards carry associated risks and can lead to disaster events. These events are generally localized events that require the response of first responders. At times, these events can quickly escalate exceeding the capability of the first responders requiring a more robust response. Hazards are generally classified into natural hazards and human-made hazards. Human-made hazards are further broken down to technological hazards and terrorism hazards. Disaster events can include one of these hazards or a combination of all three. Disaster events can be further magnified if critical infrastructure is involved.
If your name begins with the letter:A through H: Your initial post must address natural hazards.
I through O: Your initial post must address technological/human-made
P through Z: Your initial post must address terrorism/human-madeYour initial post must be a minimum of 250 words in length. In your post, identify a current (less than 2 years old) example of the hazard assigned. Discuss some of the issues or vulnerabilities that contributed to making the hazard a major event. Do you feel the response to the hazard was effective?Support both the initial post and the guided response posts with examples from required reading materials or other credible sources. Using APA formatting, cite your sources within your paragraph, and include reference entries for your sources at the end of the post as well.Required Resource
