25th Annual Florida Governor's hurricane conference
This year’s Conference Theme, "25 years: Learning from the Past, Preparing for the Future", reflects the commitment of those who have the responsibility to protect our citizens from tropical events that threaten the safety of Florida, its communities, its businesses and its citizens.
Tropical events provide large and complex management challenges that require problem solvers who can combine technical knowledge with experience, program management and leadership. Focusing on lessons learned over the years with a renewed commitment to increasing response effectiveness is what this year’s conference is all about. Keeping the over 18 million people who call Florida home prepared for and safe from the ravages of tropical events is a complex responsibility for the men and women who work for the organizations and agencies committed to disaster preparedness, response, recovery and mitigation.
