Taking an inclusive and equitable approach to emergency management planning means considering the needs of the most vulnerable populations first. Students with disabilities (SWDs) are entitled to the same emergency services as their nondisabled peers and should be considered and included during emergency management planning. Taking an equitable approach to emergency management planning does not have to be a daunting or costly task. It simply requires administrators and officials to consider the entire school community, from students and staff members to visitors and volunteers, and then take the appropriate actions to ensure the safety of all. This fact sheet provides steps and resources for creating an effective and manageable plan that does not exclude or impede any student's safety.
