Communicating Around Disaster: A Crisis Communications Workshop

Our facilitators draw on real experience — including the Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country’s response to the July 2025 Kerr County floods, along with lessons from Uvalde, Texas, the Maine and California wildfires, and the Baltimore Key bridge collapse.

Facilitators walk through a practical framework for building public understanding before a crisis, managing communications in the moment, aligning your internal team, and responding strategically to scrutiny from media. The session is built for community foundation CEOs and executive directors, communications staff, and program and community initiatives leaders. The program includes practical tools you can put to use right away including message maps and decision frameworks.
