As part of the effort to increase the disaster readiness and resilience of the schools within our county, the Trinity County Office of Education (TCOE) is leading the development of a Hazard Mitigation Plan.



A Hazard Mitigation Plan is a 5-year plan which focuses on hazard risk identification and mitigation planning. For local schools, wildfire, flooding and the need for public emergency shelters all factor into the planning process with an additional focus of plans to reconnect kids with their families before, during or after an emergency. 



As part of the project, TCOE is reaching out to better understand local community perceptions and experiences with hazard risk to the county’s schools. TCOE has prepared a 10-15 minute anonymous survey to gather real information to present a clear picture, support the hazard risk analysis, and develop a responsive 5-year hazard mitigation strategy. 



Your input matters!  The survey will be open from December 9th through January 9th, 2024. You can complete the survey at the link below, at the TCOE office, or at your local school by request.
