FEMA IS-505 Online Course: Religious and Cultural Literacy and Competency in Disaster

Religious and cultural communities are part of the whole community, and the DHS Center for Faith-based & Neighborhood Partnerships works to form partnerships between the Federal Government and faith-based and neighborhood organizations to more effectively serve Americans in need.

In partnership with the University of Southern California Center for Risk and Economic Analysis of Terrorist Events (CREATE), this course and its companion tip sheet resources where developed by University of Southern California Center for Religion and Civic Culture (CRCC) and the National Disaster Interfaiths Network.
