Business Continuity Planning Lifecycle
Haiti is in desperate need of help as a result of the 7.0 earthquake that struck this island country on Tuesday, January 12, 2010. Haiti doesn't have highly trained emergency personnel like our 'first responders' in the US. Based on the news reports, the capital city of Port-au-Prince has been decimated. ACP members who are in a position to help are encouraged to work through InterAction. Interaction is a US-based coalition of international non-governmental organizations and the nation's leading advocate for international relief. http://www.interaction.org/crisis-list/earthquake-haiti
