The incident you report on should be a current or historical event (no more than 5 years old) at the local or state level (no higher than the state level).

You should use the course materials and external research to help inform your assessment, critique, and recommendations.

Your report should be produced as a 6-8 slide (e.g., PowerPoint) presentation.

Your report should:

Provide a synopsis of the incident. What occurred? When? Who was involved? Wat parties or agencies? What was the impact of the event? Who was affected and how was the incident managed?

Describe if/how the event was handled in terms of Crisis vs. Consequence management.
