In its sixth annual campaign, the Department of Homeland Security is presenting September as National Preparedness Month. Once again, the Cooperative Extension Service, through EDEN, is a partner in this campaign. EDEN's role is to connect state and local Extension offices to expert materials in disaster mitigation, prevention, preparedness, recovery, and response. For this campaign, EDEN's intent is to provide key resources that will allow each member institution to share preparedness information both efficiently and effectively.
EDEN's content and organization for the 2009 campaign is very similar to last year's. However, various updates and improvements have been made based on user feedback and newly available resources. As you browse through the available resources and examples provided, please offer any feedback and suggestions to Abigail Borron (aborron@purdue.edu).

- Penn State University -- Using a more year-around approach, rather than just a single month campaign, Penn State has a high focus on in-service training programs and outreach to non-Extension organizations.
- South Dakota State University -- Seeking and taking advantage of opportunities to implement resources into any community or local NPM event planning, SDSU targets a variety of audiences.
