Community Resilience is a term used to describe a community's ability to respond quickly and effectively to and bounce back quickly from a natural or man-made disaster. Williamsburg County recently launched its Community Resilience Initiative to review its current state of disaster readiness and gather information from county residents about areas in which they feel secure and those in which they feel vulnerable - to fires, tornadoes, floods, hurricanes, hazardous waste spills, terrorist attacks, etc.
On the current edition of Insight, Bhakti Larry Hough interviews Williamsburg County Emergency Management and E-911 director Tiffany Cooks about the initiative.
