In this episode of Govern, host Curt Hagman is joined by Crisanta Gonzales, the Director of Emergency Management for San Bernardino County. Together they tackle a big question: Are we ready for a crisis? They dive into what emergency response is all about — who’s involved, how it works, and what our responsibility to one another is during a disaster. They explore the challenges the County has faced in the past, the lessons learned, and how we can all come together — government and the public alike — to improve safety and response.
