Richard Serino was appointed by President Obama and confirmed by the Senate as FEMA's Deputy Administrator in 2009. In this role, he works directly with Administrator Craig Fugate to promote the "whole community" approach to emergency management, which seeks to build, sustain, and improve the Department's capacity to prepare for, protect against, respond to, recover from, and mitigate all hazards. Drawing on 35 years of state and local emergency management, Mr. Serino strives to improve FEMA programs through financial accountability, improving the use of analytics to drive decisions, advancing the workforce, and fostering a culture of innovation.

Light lunch provided at 11:45am. Lecture begins at noon and runs until 1:00pm.
