The American Bar Association has assembled a DVD and course materials, Are You Ready? What Lawyers Need to Know About Emergency Preparedness and Disaster Recovery, to aid state and local government attorneys in preparing for a disaster and recovering in the wake of one. The DVD includes interviews and panel discussions with lawyers and policymakers; the course materials include, in part, articles, a checklist, and a sample incident action plan.
