The TAMIO PIO Strike Team and Lessons Learned from Kerrville

Description - When disaster struck Kerrville, it became clear very quickly that the community and our counterparts would need support. Through his connections, Brian Ligon worked diligently to establish a rotating list of PIO strike teams to deploy to Kerrville, provide support, and transition to the next team. We emphasize training for situations just like this, but how does it unfold in real life, and what lessons can we learn from some of those who answered Brian's call? Join us as we talk to Brian Ligon, Joe Calderon, and Chris Shadrock, three individuals working inside the Joint Information Center in the days immediately after the disaster.
