Throughout this course, you are developing a community risk reduction (CRR) plan for a risk that your community faces. A vital part of implementing any CRR plan is getting buy-in from the local leaders and community members.
For this assignment, provide a 5- to 10-minute video of you presenting your CRR plan as you would if you were presenting to a civic organization, the city council, or your local governing body. This video would serve as the public service announcement for the launching of your CRR plan to the community. Your video should be a professional presentation that should highlight the problem and the purpose of the CRR plan. It should also describe what steps your CRR plan will implement to mitigate the risks and the resources that will be required, and it should identify the stakeholders and other supporting agencies. Furthermore, highlight the data you gathered as justification for the CRR plan to mitigate the risks that you identified as well as the goals and objectives you established to implement and deliver the CRR plan.
Keep in mind that you are presenting to a civilian audience. You are not speaking to your chief or to other members of the fire department. As such, do not use any terminology that is specific to the fire service unless you explain it in layman’s terms.
