Join us for an interactive one-hour discussion, led by Thomas Johnson, MPH, AEM (Continuity Coordinator, Hamilton County EMHSA), on current and emerging issues in emergency management. Share insights, strengthen readiness, and enhance response capabilities together.

This session explores how Ohio counties can align continuity and cybersecurity to better protect and sustain essential county functions. It examines how counties can identify cyber dependencies, continuity gaps, and operational risks; set recovery priorities; and strengthen coordination among emergency management, IT, and cybersecurity partners to build greater resilience.
