Add to or augment your tools for emergency communications! Front Porch Forum (FPF) is hosting a free Lunch & Learn Webinar on July 28, 2025, at noon for local emergency management personnel and volunteers about using FPF for emergency readiness, response, and recovery communications. The 30-minute virtual webinar is open to all municipal officials and employees who have a role in emergency management and communications.

Learn about how FPF operates in times of crisis, including: 

  • Extended hours, checking for urgent posts early in the morning until well into the evening
  • Immediate publication when an urgent post is submitted
  • Sharing of posts to nearby towns when they contain emergency info that is relevant across a broader area

FPF will provide instructions, share examples, and answer questions about using Front Porch Forum to build community pre-crisis as well as how to deploy FPF’s reach and trust during the acute and recovery phases of disasters.
