Join us for the kickoff of the 2025 Regional Hazard Mitigation Plan planning process. 

Every five years, the Mid-America Regional Council helps jurisdictions on the Missouri side of the region update a hazard mitigation plan to meet requirements set by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Kansas communities are also in the process of updating their plans. 

Missouri election officials in the Kansas City metropolitan area (Cass, Clay, Jackson, Platte and Ray counties), in conjunction with the Regional Homeland Security Coordinating Committee (RHSCC), are hosting an immersive three-hour workshop that emphasizes the importance of interagency cooperation between election officials, law enforcement, emergency management, public information officers, cybersecurity experts and emergency responders in effectively mitigating threats and ensuring a swift and coordinated response to election-related incidents.

The PER335 course is a 16-hour in-person class that addresses the vulnerability of any community to a public safety situation, such as an active shooter at a shopping mall; a train derailment with hazardous chemicals; a bombing incident at a commercial district; a plane crash; or chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, or explosive attack. These complex coordinated attacks involve multiple threats that often exceed conventional response tactics. The attacks require a joint response involving members from varying disciplines and jurisdictions.
