Recommendations

Revise the existing guidance in State Liaison (SL)-100 to capture best practices and serve as a knowledge management tool for the Regional State Liaison Officer (RSLO) role.

Coordinate with government partners at the Federal, State, and local levels to identify resources, such as recorded training videos or presentations, to supplement Regional State Liaison Officers’ outreach.

Make content and design changes to improve accessibility and clarity of the emergency preparedness and incident response public Web pages, including:a. Use plain language and best practices to provide information targeting specific audiences (e.g., industry, government partners, and general public).b. Improve connections between the program office pages with emergency preparedness information and existing public affairs resources.
