<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">After careful consideration of the continued health risks posed by COVID-19, the Heritage Emergency and Response Training (HEART) coordination team decided not to host an in-person HEART program this year. However, in its place will be
a week of informative programming dedicated to increasing understanding of emergencies and disasters that affect cultural institutions and historic sites. Kicking off the week of December 6 is an informational session about the history of HEART and its creation
by the Heritage Emergency National Task Force. Three graduates will highlight how HEART has helped them in their work. The rest of the week, daily keynotes will feature experts in the fields of emergency management, heritage protection, and current disaster
research.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">All webinars will take place in Zoom. Webinars are free but registration is required. For more information and to register, go to

<p class="MsoNormal"><b>About HEART<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In 2015 the Smithsonian Cultural Rescue Initiative (SCRI) became the co-sponsor, with FEMA’s Office of Environmental Planning and Historic Preservation (OEHP), of the Heritage Emergency National Task Force (HENTF), a public-private partnership
created to protect our nation’s cultural heritage. Both SCRI and OEHP are committed to expanding training for cultural stewards, first responders, and emergency managers to better prepare them to work together to address emergencies and disasters that affect
cultural institutions and historic sites.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">With funding from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the National Endowment for the Humanities, and Bank of America, HENTF has created this training opportunity for U.S.–based professionals to gain skills and experience in disaster response
for cultural heritage. HEART combines the important principles of the internationally recognized First Aid to Cultural Heritage in Times of Crisis (FAC) training model with context-specific information for a U.S. audience.
